how to start ssh server on iOS?
I can't connect to my iphone via ssh. device is jailbroken and has openssh installed:
$ ssh -V
OpenSSH 6.7p1, OpenSSL 0.9.8zg 11 Jun 2015
I've found out that for some reason it doesn't have the server process started(my other post: Can't ssh to my iphone: ssh_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host)
Although I've run on my iphone(as root):
# launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.openssh.sshd.plist
But
$ ps aux | grep [s]shd
returns nothing, instead of something like:
root 749 0.0 0.0 55164 5428 ? Ss Aug09 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd -D
So there is the question:
How can I start my ssh server on my iphone?
And/Or
Verify a correct installation?
EDIT:
Well I got it!
so $(which sshd) returned me something like:
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
Could not load host key: /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key
Disabling protocol version 2. Could not load host key
sshd: no hostkeys available -- exiting.
So I've found this solution online: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=165382
On my iphone I run:
$ su
# $(which ssh-keygen) -A
# $(which sshd)
and after that nmaped iphone from my laptop (to check if it worked):
sudo nmap -sS -sV -p 22 iphone.local
Starting Nmap 6.47 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2015-08-09 18:00 PDT
Nmap scan report for iphone.local (192.168.1.53)
Host is up (0.058s latency).
PORT STATE SERVICE VERSION

DONE!
Try running sshd in the foreground to prove correct installation:
- Find it:
which sshd - Run it:
sshd - Report Output
You could try sshd | tee ~/ssh.out (if IOS has 'tee'), else sshd >> ~/ssh.out
