Yalu102: No scp/sftp with Dropbear. Safe to use OpenSSH instead?

[Sticktron]

Or is there a way to get scp/sftp with Dropbear?

[oncheonche]

cat iosbinpack64/usr/bin/scp | ssh root@iphone "cat > scp"
ssh root@iphone
mv scp /usr/bin/scp

Then you have scp

[Sticktron]

Thanks.
Still wondering if there's anything inherently wrong with using OpenSSH with this jailbreak though. So far I just hang waiting for a connection.

Thanks but I have scp now.

A lot of (most?) developers are going to want scp/sftp, it would be preferable to be able to install OpenSSH via Cydia for one-step ssh+scp+sftp. I appreciate the value in having ssh access by default (via dropbear) for everyone, for troubleshooting, but I bet most casual users don't know they have it running already, leaving their passwords defaulting to alpine. It might be safer to leave out Dropbox and let people optionally install OpenSSH through Cydia.

Is there an incompatibility with yalu that's forcing Luca to install dropbear?

[oncheonche]

Maybe something that would try to launch at startup, causing problems as it's not jailbroken at startup until Yalu is launched

[Sticktron]

Yalu reloads launch daemons after jailbreaking, so I don't fink that's the issue.

[oncheonche]

But what if a daemon containing unsigned code tries to launch at startup before Yalu is launched ?

[Sticktron]

It fails to load until Yalu tries reloading it after jailbreaking (via the reload script in the source files)

openssh is not compatible with iOS 10

[Sticktron]

That's the problem then :) thank you for the clarification.

this sftp-server will work if copied to /usr/libexec/sftp-server https://github.com/dweinstein/openssh-ios/releases
