-- Once you have SSH running on the iPhone, you'll want to make a note of your iPhone's IP address - you'll need this to connect to it - go to Settings > WiFi, and click on the network you're connected to - that should list your IP address for you - something like 192.168.1.x or similar depending on your network's addressing scheme
-- Then launch WinSCP on your computer
-- In the Host Name field fill in the IP address of your iPhone
-- Leave the port as 22
-- Fill in username as 'root' (without the quotes) and either 'alpine' or 'dottie' as the password depending on your firmware version
Set the File Protocol (drop down) to SCP - and hit Login
If you're prompted about the server's host key not being in the cache file, just click Yes - and you should be connected ...
Thats brilliant, but its asking for a session password to authenticate access. Any ideas ?
