“…Only if I Reboot it works.” – I’m sorry I didn’t read that…

Try reinstalling OpenSSH on Cydia, it is very easy.

Do you have OpenSSH installed in your iPhone?
Cause the switch only enable/disable the app, you need to have it already installed.

* You can install it on Cydia.

Hi there,
I have a problem with Boss Prefs v2.12b. I enter the program to enable SSH, but when I try to use Cyberduck tells me that it is not possible. So I go back to Boss Prefs and find that the SHH option is off. In other words, although active again if I go to the main screen of the iPhone and them back to Boss Prefs I discover that SHH has not been activated. Only if I Reboot it works.
Does anyone knows why?

Nah the killswitch is there to disable any application that apple dont want you to have on your iphone.

Case and point is auroua feint, apple removed it, so it was no longer “legal” in the apple world, and they killd it.

Basically its there if apple ever see the need to disable all illegal apps on iphones.

Apple might kill NetShare, so watch out everybody.

has anyone ever witnessed apple ever using this feature? because i remember this occasion about auora feint… i had it on my iphone when apple complained about it uploading your contacts to their servers. apple took it right out of the shop until they fixed this “feature”. it was never removed from my iphone though…i thought thats what this killswich is all about. protect me… guess apple had something else in mind

I guess it’s for people who use cracked apps?! I read some articles which said that Apple can access iPhone with unlicensed apps and remove them completely. For those who buy apps genuinely, there shouldn’t be any reasons for turning that Killswitch off.

Its a matter of choice. I appreciate being able to kill Apples Kill Switch. All we have to do as users is be carefull and not download every piece of software before completely knowing what it Is. If you feel safer letting Apple make that decision for you then that is also a choice.
