To use ssh on a Mac, you can simply use the ssh command in a terminal. It is installed by default. About the N900 part, I'm not sure this works (can't test it, as I'll get my device tomorrow), but try this: run "dpkg-reconfigure openssh" as root in a terminal on the N900. This should show you the configuration dialog again.

I did this last night funnily enough using Cyberduck too, also trying Fugu as well, both work very well.
What I did was change the root password to begin with. You can do it by entering
sudo passwd root
into the terminal, and you get to change the password in the next step. Note you wont see anything when you type.
Then in Cyberduck, just enter the IP address for the N900, make sure its port 22, username is root, and the password is what you just entered. This should work!

I'm not familiar with the terminal at the moment, but someone posted that before and it worked for me. Maybe search on re-setting the root password may help?

For root password:
(actually, it might work inline as well)
For user password:
In xterm on N900... After setting your password(s) everything should be fine and dandy.
Code:
sudo gainroot passwd
For user password:
Code:
sudo gainroot passwd user

Try adding port number after that, e.g. sftp://root@19.0.2.7:22

secondly, i used to use cyberduck to ssh into my iphone to install themes and icons. how do i go about doing this on the n900? the ihone had a default password "alpine". does the n900 have something similar?
i really want to install some new icons and fonts on this beauty!
