[Broomhead]

No problem. Welcome to MMi

[thejjaro]

thanks glad to be here, i have one other question, i cant find openssh and bsd on installer app, i did quickpwn jailbreak, how else can i get these 2 downloads?

You can find openssh and cydia.

BSD subsystems was installed for you during jailbreak

thejarro, the Wiki article did not mention that after installing OpenSSH you should change the passwords for root and mobile on your phone. A bit irresponsible of the author(s), because without changing them you run the risk of being hacked.

That is not an imaginary risk. I read that someone tried to log into the entire range of IP addresses a certain provider gave to iPhones on its 3G network. People with SSH and the default passwords saw all their private data stolen.

I have corrected that in the article.

And the only way to do this is by connecting via Wifi?

No, you can connect to your iPhone through the WiFI connection and through the USB cable (and perhaps through its 3G internet connection).

That's correct. SSH is via wifi.

Thanks! unfortunate (it's easier for me to do this @ work than @ home where I have wifi access), but I'll manage. Everything I read kept pointing to wifi as the only option and I wanted to be sure....

No, SSH can also work if you connect through USB. If you install iPhone Tunnel Suite, for example, you can SSH into your phone through the cable.

And if your phone has a public IP address through 3G, EDGE or GPRS (this depends on your phone company), that will also work.

Oh,ok...thanks for the program name - iPhone Tunnel Suite. This is the very first mention I've seen. I will follow up. Is it ok for Windows users?

Download a program called Diskaid. It is free and works via your USB cable. You don't have to enter an IP address or usename/password. Just launch the program and then plug your phone into it and it automatically recognizes it.

The only thing I can't figure out how to do with it is set permissions(not that I have ever had to do it before) and how to symlink.
