Hi All,

Dropbear is a small SSH2 Server and Client running on a variety of POSIX-based platforms.
It has been mainly developed by Matt Johnston (see matt's web site).

Scachi did a port to the Wiz, and i've recompiled it for the caanoo.

This package include everything from my latest version plus the sftp-server required to use the SFTP protocol (secured FTP).

You can now browse, put or get files using wifi from a PC running for example winscp (see http://winscp.net/eng/download.php). The login is root and a blank password.

Here is a full working binary version :

Freewifi hotspot connection for caanoo

zx81.zx81@gmail.com (zx-81) — Tue, 04 Jan 2011 22:00:35 +0100

Hi All,

Here is a simple tool, that might be useful for french guys like me who want to connect to all "FreeWifi" wireless hotspots using their caanoo + official GPH wifi dongle (i've just received mine today ).

This tool is based on my termlua2x fixed version (see my blog for other details) and a recompilation of the famous wget command line browser.

Once you're connected to the FreeWifi hotspot (using GPH menu) you need to enter identification login/password.
This simple tool will do it for you. You just need to modify the config.txt file with your personnal account settings.

This set of tools + shell script might be modified to be used with other internet providers that offer such wireless connection feature.

Binary version :
caanoo-freewifi-bin.zip

Enjoy,

Zx

Caanoo-Dropbear : SSH Server & Client for the Caanoo v0.52

zx81.zx81@gmail.com (zx-81) — Tue, 16 Nov 2010 22:24:59 +0100

Hi All,

Dropbear is a small SSH2 Server and Client running on a variety of POSIX-based platforms.
It has been mainly developed by Matt Johnston (see matt's web site).

Scachi did a port to the Wiz, and i've recompiled it for the caanoo. It includes 'scp' so you can use the dropbear server to transfert files (using scp with termlua2x from caanoo side, or scp / winssh from your PC side).

That's what i'm using to dev on the caano, to transfert cross-compiled binaries etc

Be careful, if you want to connect to your caanoo you must use the -t option no to launch a login shell or it will relaunch the menu etc and make a big mess on your caanoo session. The following command should work properly :

ssh root@caanoo_ip_address -t "/bin/sh"

Here is a full working binary version :
caanoo-dropbear-0.52-bin.zip

And here is the source code :
caanoo-dropbear-0.52-src.zip

Enjoy,

Zx.
