apple doesn't allow access to the phone's files. so it won't happen in app store.

what gives?

I just did it not 5 minutes ago, had the same timeout issues. A reboot of the iphone does the trick.
The first connection seemed to be quite slow, however all subsequent connections are almost instant.

I keep getting this message:
WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED!

I installed OpenSHH from cydia, restarted my iphone, checked the IP address, username: root, port: 22...but I can't get to the next screen that asks for the password. I'm on 2.0 and I'm on a Mac and I have ssh'd into my files a hundred times with 1.1.4. But I don't know what to do.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Nevermind, I figured it out. I just went to my user file, pressed CMD + shift + G and a window came up with .ssh and I clicked on it and deleted the "known host" file.
I have been thanked.

EXCELLENT .. It is working again!!!

The reboot helped, and also the 1st connection took about 45 seconds!

It was apparently generating a secure key ... that's why it took so long.

Now it is quick!!!

Thx Guys

ok, ssh drainds battery. with bossprefs you can toggle ssh on and off.

i have a 3g and battery draining is bad enough as it is.

i NEED a way to toggle ssh on and off in cydia, any ideas?

This is the reason why I have yet to fix my Mail.app. If I install openSSH I have no way of toggling it on or off.

Well unless you are constantly using SSH there is no reason to keep it installed until a toggle is provided.

I just install it when I need it, do my business and uninstall it when finished. This kinda sucks, but I don't use SSH very often so it works until bossprefs is on 2.0.

i suppose this would work for now, im not that desperate personally to use ssh for now at the battery draining costs.

i see big boss has ported some apps over to 2.0 and cydia already, i am very surprised that bossprefs was not the first app that he did.

Yeah, that will have to do for now.

This is my problem.
I just installed 2.0 on my iphone.
I've connected it to my house router (ssh installed), but when I try to connect to it via winscp, it just pops out "Network error. Connection refused". I would appreciate any help, especially because this is my first time doing this kind of thing. thnx.

P.S. my house wifi is wep secured, if that means anything.
