To get remote access to N900 thru wifi:

1. install the following apps/software

n900 end: (all these apps are in extras repos)

ssh server/client - this will request password when installing (WRITE DOWN / TAKE NOTE OF PASSWORD !!) rootsh maemo-pc-connectivity mad developer

for pc end:

2. goto 'settings' > connectivity > 'pc-connectivity-manager'

3. click "advanced" button > select environment 'default'

4. select connectiont type 'usb'

5. options > select 'network' from drop-down list
