GNURoot in Action–Turn Your Android Phone into a SSH Server

With GNURoot, we can easily turn our Android Phone into a SSH server.

There are two options, openssh-server

apt-get update
apt-get install openssh-server
#change /etch/ssh/ssd_config Port 22 to Port 2222
/etc/init.d/ssh start

and dropbear.

apt-get install dropbear
edit /etc/default/dropbear
change DROPBEAR_PORT=22 to DROPBEAR_PORT=3322
/etc/init.d/dropbear start

no matter using openssh-server or dropbear, please do not forget setting password for root user,

passwd root

or you can try ssh without password with the help of SSH private key.

btw, I prefer dropbear,

Dropbear is a relatively small SSH server and client. It runs on a variety of POSIX-based platforms. Dropbear is open source software, distributed under a MIT-style license. Dropbear is particularly useful for “embedded”-type Linux (or other Unix) systems, such as wireless routers.
