I've just tested theses packages with ARAnyM ans EasyMiNT.I can confirm that, cool work Keith! And thanks Vincent for this tutorial for dummies, without it I'd never think it is so easy!
Updating the system using RPMs works is too easy ;-)
rpm -U openssl-0.9.8j-1.m68kmint.rpm openssh-5.2p1-1.m68kmint.rpm openssh-clients-5.2p1-1.m68kmint.rpm openssh-server-5.2p1-1.m68kmint.rpm
The SSH server just works.
