mToken 4.3 Released; Adds SSH Tunneling
"SSH port forwarding(also known as tunneling) allows forwarding of normal Internet(TCP) connections to a remote machine over an encrypted channel. This feature can be used to securely access services behind firewall without switching to new set of applications. You just need to make minor configuration changes(e.g., server address and port number) to your existing software."
Choung Networks has released the latest version of mToken, an absolute essential if you routinely administer *nix systems from your mobile device. With the addition of SSH port forwarding, programs you normally need LAN access for can be used securely over the Net. Nice! Trial version is available, full version available for $49.

Holy Cow! That's looks just like my old favourite Norton Commander!
I have an old copy running on XP now (albeit some disabled features) and it would be great if they did something similar for the Pocket PC platform too.
(sorry...maybe a little off topic here!)
cheers

Indeed, it's Midnight Commander, a clone of Norton Commander for UNIX -- i.e. the Pocket PC is ssh'ed into a box running mc. Most Linux distributions still come with it.
