Default This Works on Touchpad

Just want to emphasize, this worked with my Touchpad, use Xterm in place of terminal, and if you are having connecting via USB to the Touchpad (I am), email youself the id_rsa file.

Just wanted to share that I can now FTP to my Pre 2, Veer, and TouchPad.

Connect your device via USB and use webOSquickinstall's Linux command-line function, then copy-paste the commands from page 1. After that, just switch to USB drive mode to copy the id_rsa file to your desktop, configure Filezilla and you're done!

No mess, no stress! :P

Update: Holy CARP! Now I'm getting that "Network error: Connection refused / Could not connect to server" error on my TouchPad. Does this thing have a firewall or something? Or was it because I restarted it?

Egads.

Solution Update: After reinstalling everything and still not getting anywhere, I figured that this must be a service problem. So going through OpenSSH's wiki at webosinternals, here's what did it:

start mobi.optware.openssh

Just did it via webosquickinstall's commandline function. I'm back online

Now I can get some sleep :P

As a follow-up to the above Terminal access start command, is there a way we could automate this? Like just click on an icon ala-Pulse Audio Restart and have this service go?
