Re: localhost password ssh connection

As Dean mentioned, iSSH is a client, not a server. So if you are going to log into your iPhone, then you need to install server sw. That said, be very careful about doing this. JB iPhones are being compromised when the ssh server is installed. See:

You will need to take steps to lockdown your iPhone.
