Something I'm surprised I haven't seen mentioned so far is a comment regarding this: > The hardest part of setting up an SSH client on a tablet is getting your private SSH key on there without entrusting it to a third party. I split mine across multiple services and removed it after recombining it, but a better way would be to SSH in with a password first, then use copy and paste to copy the key inside iSSH itself. Ideally, you shouldn't be transferring a private key in the first place, and instead, generating a new private key on the tablet itself, specifically for the tablet. Once you've generated a private key for the tablet, it's trivial to push the public key for it to the server (and safe to entrust the public key to third parties, since it's specifically intended to be public). It also means that if, say, your tablet got stolen, you could just revoke access for the tablet's key, rather than having to redo everything for your existing key.
