So far so good! I’ve only used it to start and stop lighttpd, but it works perfectly for that. Since I haven’t yet got terminal running properly, that’s really helpful. I have to admit that I’m a bit scared to try using it to stop SSH, as it would be a real drag if I couldn’t get it restarted. Have you done that yet? And one other question, if I’m not imposing too much…do you know how to change the SSH password under 1.1.3? I’ve read that normal methods will corrupt it.

This new version works well for any application you want to run as mobile. It does not work for loading and unloading openssh. It will unload ssh but when you try to load it, it runs ssh as user mobile and that does not work as it can not view the ssh keys.

Thanks sk3ndall for being the guinea pig . I tried it, and go identical results. Fortunately, rebooting the phone restarts ssh.

BTW, I got terminal running using the tricks here:

Still haven’t found any way to change the password though….

sk3ndall:

Finally found a way to turn ssh back on without rebooting the phone. NetServices works IF you:

chmod +s /Applications/NetServices.app/NetServices
chown -R root:wheel /Applications/NetServices.app/NetServices

I installed UIctl this morning on my freshly-jailbroken iPhone (1.1.4) that had only BSD tools and Openssh.

Afte the install completed, the phone started convulsing, constantly restarting the Springboard.

I happily restored it to my original configuration… and until I figure out what the problem was, no more jailbreak!
