    Hey guys,
    I just jb my iPhone 4 4.1 and I was reading on some of the safety tips. I notices that people are saying to change the password on openssh. I haven't installed anything like that but wondering if it's automaticly installed and if so how to I turn it of?
    Thanks for the help

    What they want you to do is install OpenSSH to your iPhone and SSH (using a SSH client) into it in order to change the root password, which is "alpine." it's more work than it's worth.

    Yes, if you don't have OpenSSH installed there's nothing to worry about.

    Also, if you do have OpenSSH installed, you can use BossPrefs to toggle it on and off. I haven't used BossPrefs on 4.x though, not sure it still works. As mentioned above, OpenSSH doesn't automatically install

    Besides, OpenSSH only works through WiFi only.

    I love OpenSSH. Click and drag mp3s and ringtones into their directories. No need for ITunes. I even converted some old Blackberry SMS Tones and transferred them into the uisounds to replace the 6 stock tones
