install 'openssh' from cydia
d/l your fav ssh/ftp program
ssh to your iphone.
Don't forget to change your root and mobile passwords. Also keep off when not in use.
Or just download iFunBox for Mac. No need to even download OpenSSH. Windows has an alternative called iPhone Explorer for anyone interested. If I have those two mixed up, someone correct me.
I have both on my Win PC... Much easier/ more reliable with the USB cable connection than SSH over Wifi, at least with my buggie router? It would sometimes switch the ip address during a SSH and I'd lose the connection. No such issues with the USB connection. I prefer ifunbox.

Completely easier and less buggy with FAR less security risk. What's not to like about it?
I have no bug issues over wi-fi. To each his own.
Security issues? Get a password and don't leave your network wide open.
