Your BUG is not just a handy device, it's a Linux computer. This means you have command line access, and all of the power that comes with it, to your BUG. You can access the console in a few ways if you have USBnet set up.

Getting to the Console over USBnet

Assuming you've got your BUG networking set up, you can access the BUG via telnet or ssh.

Telnet and SSH clients for Windows

Putty is a great open source telnet/ssh client for Windows (and Linux) machines.

Telnet and SSH for Linux

Most (all?) distributions of Linux come with telnet and ssh clients built in. To access the command line of your BUG, simply open up a terminal and

telnet 10.10.10.10

or

ssh root@10.10.10.10

Login is root/root.

Telnet and SSH for OSX

OSX also comes with telnet and ssh built in. To access the command line of your BUG, simply open up a terminal and

telnet 10.10.10.10

or

ssh root@10.10.10.10

Login is root/root.
