So, here is what I did. The Outernet board runs software built with Buildroot. Nothing wrong with that necessarily. Busybox plus Dropbear plus, for reasons unknown to me, VSFTPD. I still have systems problems so using Transmit for iOS will NOT connect to Dropbear on the Outernet box for SFTP. It will connect for FTP, though. I do have SSH access to the Outernet board so I used Cathode for iOS to have a Strong Bad-like SSH session. I used tar to create a tarball of all the downloaded files so I could review them off the board. The board is being kept isolated from the main house network so that it is only receiving the satellite field. I had to do some jiggery-pokery on the board to create the tarball with the flags cvnpJ (n is for seekable archive, p is for preserving permissions) before I got to f and then the filename. I successfully used FTP to get the file off the board. Then the board crashed for unknown reasons. It is a bit late for me to head out to the garage to see what happened. I'm probably going to have to reflash the board yet again. This thing does not rate well in my eyes at all.
