Setup instructions and SSH hardening
#1
I have started to document my Ubuntu Touch setup process as I learn how this system works.  I have have had the phone about a week now and I am trying to gather information from many different resources into one place for my own reference and also hope this may help others.

Also it is very important to note that Ubuntu Touch comes with an SSH server running by default on your phone.  So I have come up with some instruction on hardening your SSH server setup and scripts to easily enable and disable the service as needed.

Please feel free to share and make comments.  I still have lots of things to work on and add as I get them fully working (cell calls, sms, firewall, trying apps).
