SSH on a PS3

So, not thinking about it, I tried to remotely SSH into Ubuntu on my PS3 today only to get a connection refused message. Turns out SSH isn’t installed by default on this distro (or poss with the settings I chose) so I had to use good old apt to install it:

$hell> sudo apt-get install ssh

It all installed fine, no config options required, and I can now connect from anywhere on the network - Woo :)
