HELP! Trying to SSH, but not working so well...

[Boner Soup]

Ok, so I've been reading about SSH and whatnot. I need to change the name of a file in my phone to work properly. I used iPhone Explorer to get to the file, but it will not open the file properly. What SSH Client are you guys/gals using to get into your iPhones to change files? Im using a PC and not a Mac.

Thanks!

I use winscp on windows.

o to make life easier, use diskaid or iphone browser to browse you system files via usb

Just downloaded and cannot figure out to use it to get into the iPhone. Thanks for the info though! Anyone else?

The new jailbreaks include afc2add so that USB-based clients can access the root files. If it isn't already in your device if you didnt use the newer jailbreak tools, add afc2add from Cydia.

I personally use WinSCP. It works great, but it isn't USB-based. Takes a little set up but once that is done, as long as you have wifi it's great.

Thank you! iPhone Browser is what I used to use, but couldnt remember it!

Thank you for that info. That was helpful as well. I sent all of you some THANKS!

iPhoneBrowser is really buggy and the crashes are horribly inconvenient.

For USB Browsing: iFunbox
For SSH Browsing: WinSCP

Make sure afc2add is installed for iFunbox and OpenSSH is installed for WinSCP, both are available on Cydia on the stock repositories for free.
