Apple iPhone SSH Access

You need a jailbroken iPhone for this.

1. use Cydia to install the OpenSSH package
2. enable WLAN access and find your iPhone’s IP (see Settings → Wi-Fi → \ → IP Address)
3. under Linux type: ssh <IP address> -l root; for Windows use PuTTY
4. (the first connection will need about 20-30 seconds¹most probably the iPhone will generate some encryption keys here before you’ll be asked to accept the host key)
5. use the following password: alpine (older iPhones used dotty)
