Hi,
I hope this is the correct section in the forum to post as I'm trying to SSH from my MacBook.
I was looking to see whether ssh on my jailbroken iPhone 6s (10.3.1) still works fine and was following this old reddit guide. I installed OpenSSH&OpenSSL from Cydia and changed the password using MTerminal successfully. I did check whether the password is correct through the command "su" and it did work.
When trying to SSH from my OSX's Terminal I get the following error message after each of the 3 attempts it gives me.
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive)
I did a couple google searches and deleted the known hosts file from my OSX. That did not work out. So then I set the root password back to "alpine" not via Terminal, but by modifying /etc/master.passwd . Then successfully checked whether it worked via MTerminal. Still on my Mac it gives me the same Permission denied error.
I also tried ssh my phone without success after connecting both devices to another WiFi.
This is the command I enter when trying to ssh my iPhone by the way: "ssh root@192.168.178.55"
Would the output that comes when using ssh -v be helpful and safe to post publicly?
Thanks in advance!
