SSH problem

**alvinlala** · 12-22-2010, 10:48 PM

Hi. I'm quite new here even though I've been browsing around and I"m not sure if this is in the right section but I have one major problem.

Sometimes, I get disconnected from SSHing my iPhone when my iPhone isn't on the lock screen and Auto-Lock is never. I find it annoying that I always have to enter Cydia and modify my OpenSSH package.

My question here is if there's a way to stop that from happening and just allow me to log in and out without having to reinstall OpenSSH everytime I want to use WinSCP and change some stuff in my iPhone

My iPhone is connected to my computer and I'm using the iPhone's wifi IP address.

Bump... Sorry if this is in the wrong section...

yeah this is the wrong section, but close enough

but i'm confused, you have to reinstall openssh everytime you wanna use winscp with your iphone, or your iphone just disconnects from winscp randomly?

Yeah. Sometimes when I leave it idle for, I dunno five minutes at the least, WinSCP just disconnects from my iPhone and tries to reconnect. I always have to open up Cydia and reinstall OpenSSH if I want to continue SSHing into my iPhone.

Have you tried uninstalling then reinstalling winSCP? I've never had this problem with the program, and I don't thing the problem is with the openSSH package from cydia.

I haven't yet mainly because I haven't been needing to SSH into my iPhone but I guess I can try that..

Glove it got fixed, I was also going to recommend iphonebrowser, don't have to worry about disconnecting and in my experience seems a bit faster. The only thing I've found is that there's no terminal option but I use mobile terminal for that (may not be the best for long lines of code).
