unix  3      [ ]         STREAM     CONNECTED     9870     1138/shellinaboxd 

In light of the last post, this makes no sense.

I think that you are using wrong command.

Use command: sudo service shellinabox start

Which doesn't have the "d" on the end of shellianbox.

Okay, that made it work.  Don't know why other instructions said to use it with 
the "D".

Now I need to know how to make it do something.  I understood that it creates 
an SSH terminal, but how does one log into a remote server?
