[...] The manual approach requires you know about SSH or DiskAid. At least, you need to know how you can transfer file between iPhone and computer. To learn more about it, you can refer to this post of How to Use SSH to Transfer File on iPhone. [...]

Tried to set up an SSH connection, but ran into a problem:

I/O Error: Connection failed
sftp://192.168.1.11
There was a problem while connecting to 192.168.1.11:22

Any Help?

Thanks.

iTunnel allows your computer to ’see’ the phone through the USB cable as if it’s a device on the local network, at address 127.0.0.1 on port 22 (or any other port you specify when launching iTunnel). Once that is achieved, PuTTY can make an ssh connection to that address.

I think iTunnel is now at version 9. You may also need to copy a .dll file from one of iTunes’ program directories, and you probably need a recent version of iTunes with which you have already connected the phone. Google will provide more instructions.

That said, if your computer and your iPhone are on the same local network (e.g. the computer is 192.168.100.2 and the phone 192.168.100.3), PuTTY should normally be able to connect to root@192.168.100.3 on port 22. If not, maybe your router doesn’t allow connections between its clients. That can usually be changed in the router’s settings.

Dear Jim,
It might be silly when i tried to connect to itself. Because I just want to test openssh work or not on iphone. Could you tell me why i need itunnel running on my computer? which version of itunnel should i install now?

If you ssh into your phone through the USB cable, you need to have iTunnel running on your computer. Why you’d use MobileTerminal on your phone to make an ssh connection to itself I don’t understand. You’re already logged into the phone once you have started MobileTerminal on the phone…
