    Default WinSCP SSH help please!

    Please help! I SSH'd a file I got here, (the facebook app) and then D-loaded the appropriate SSH client, WinScp. Let them tell it, it's as easy as 1-2-3, meaning that all you have to do is drag and drop and the app appears in your Iphone, at least as far as I can tell per the instructions from the Poster. No such luck for the kid. Granted I am a NOOB to this stuff, but not an entire Idiot. Any and all help is welcomed and VERY appreciated. Thanks, Michael

    I believe facebook is a free app from the app store. Why not get it there?
    You my have download an app for an earlier firmware. Can you link us to the page you downloaded that app from?

    it already defaulted to 0755, and that didn't work. GRRRRR

    I do have 1.1.4 therefore I can't use it from the App store. Here's the link for the FaceBook D-load, scroll down to near the bottom of the page Apple & iPhone 3G Forums | ModMyi.com - Downloads - iPhone

    I think I figured out what's going wrong with my attempts. When I looked at the version that I got from the link that I d-loaded, I believe I got 1.0 and I have 1.1.4 Could that be what's going wrong? That my firmware is a later version? Or is that version compatible with my 1.1.4 firmware? I looked at the plist info on both local and remote windows and they are identical...

    I think the problem is that if you have 1.x.x firmware, you cant have any apps. They appstore came out with the 2.0 update which gave the app store...app lol. I'd say just upgrade it and that should fix the problem.


    I use different fonts to make myself feel cool!!!!
