My iPhone was jailbroken and unlocked with iNdependence. I seem to remember that the unlocking procedure involved installing openSSH. How do I use this as an ssh client on my iPhone?

I ask this because my school's wifi requires you to authenticate yourself by entering "ssh [userid]@10.0.0.1" and then entering a password in Terminal on a mac. I need to be able to do something similar on the phone. When I try this on terminal.app, it says "Command not found" or something similar. How do I get this working?
 
I did. How do I use it to authenticate myself on the iPhone?
 
ssh root@[IPADDRESS]
password: alpine
(change your password after you get logged in if you're going to have ssh enabled).
says "ssh: command not found". BTW I am using mobileterminal.app, installed via iNdepenence.
 
Ok i managed to get ssh running i think, but will terminal be quit when i hit the home button?
