I want an App for Mac OS X 10.5 to connect to my site using ssh. The app must be free and have some sort of instructions to get me started.

EDIT:

I just needed to take care of something on my website via SSH. CyberDuck worked.

Given the first two answers that refer to file transfers rather than plain SSH access (which is included in OS X; just type ssh in Terminal): please explain what you need? – Arjan Jan 7 '10 at 9:30
so actually you want a 'scp' client and not interactivity? – akira Jan 7 '10 at 10:57
@edit2 statement: yah, but now the question reflects correctly what you accepted as an answer. 'take care of something with ssh' is an open field. – akira Jan 8 '10 at 8:20

Try using Cyberduck, a free, open-source app. Here are the supported protocols:

FTP (File Transfer Protocol), FTP/TLS (FTP secured over SSL/TLS), SFTP (SSH Secure File Transfer), WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning), Amazon S3 and Rackspace Cloud Files.

Transmit (Panic software) has that functionality.

Another great one I recommend (Open Source) is FileZilla

You can use Cyberduck.

You can use Macfusion, but it's not been updated for a while.

Any hints on why I got a downvote? – Loïc Wolff Jan 7 '10 at 9:52

Wow... Old software. – Jasarien Jan 7 '10 at 13:16
Only the screenshot is old, the software has been updated and has Leopard/Snow Leopard support. – alex Jan 7 '10 at 15:05
