Either way this tutorial requires indeed wi-fi.

But why would you bother that much since N900 connects "just like that" via usb, plug n' play?
If you think it's worth bothering here's some guys who did it: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=37720
Or read this: http://sumoudou.org/相撲外：Mount%20the%...%20a%20PC.html
Hmm okay, I will try that sumoudou.org's thing.
Thanks.

omg why didnt i come across this post earlier. took me quite a few hrs to find a suitable client software.

btw, why would u install openssh-client on n900. client side would be laptop from where u r accessing ur n900.

just install openssh-server, start the server through terminal and use client software to access the server (n900)

I'm having some problems on Windows 7.
On XP it works great.

I kept getting Destination host unreachable error, I have already added WinSCP to allow list in firewall.
Any ideas?

N900 local IP is 192.168.1.125.
When ping by using the command "ping 192.168.1.125" in cmd, it said..
"Reply 192.168.1.82: Destination host unreachable"
I don't know why it shows 192.168.1.82 (which is my laptop) instead of 192.168.1.125 (the N900)

Running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit, WinSCP latest verion, N900 has OpenSSH Client + Server

Maybe your IP has changed.

Patience grasshopper. I imagine many people that may have been able to help have been put off by the fact you have posted this approximately 1000 times across numerous threads in less than a day!

There are many variables here. Some suggestions:
  • Have you definitely installed the ssh server on your phone (not just the client)? If you have previously had a successful connection with this install then don't worry about this one.
  • Have you accidentally stopped the ssh daemon? You can test with "ps -A | grep sshd" in a terminal. You should see an sshd process owned by root.
  • Have you accidentally messed with any files in /home/user/.ssh or /root/.ssh (for example to attempt to set up a key based connection)?
  • Have you for some reason changed the permissions on /home/user or /root? Maybe to allow you to view files in /root as user? If these directories are too permissive then you won't be able to connect.
  • Are you typing the password in correctly?
  • Are you trying to ssh in as user instead of root (I think this may be disallowed by default).
  • Are you trying to SSH in to your phone while it's connected to wifi, using the correct IP? If you are on 3G you will not be able to connect.

There are probably more things, these are just off the top of my head. If this doesn't work you could try enabling logging in winscp to get more information. See here.

EDIT: Thought of another one: Make sure you're using scp, not sftp to connect. If memory serves winscp allows both.

Cheers,
Jan
