SSH-Server on Spica !?!

[voku1987]

In the "CyanogenMod" (CM) there is a ssh-server, so that we can connect to our android without a cable (works only in W-LAN mode). With this little "HowTo" you can connect easyly to your Android...

------------

Android:

adb shell

mkdir /data/dropbear
cd /data/dropbear
dropbearkey -t dss -f dropbear_dss_host_key
dropbearkey -t rsa -f dropbear_rsa_host_key

Linux: (Debian / Ubuntu)

1.) Install ssh-client

sudo aptitude install ssh-client

1.1) Generate key

ssh-keygen -t rsa

1.2) Transfer key to android

adb push ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub /data/dropbear/.ssh/authorized_keys

Windows:
PuTTY Download Page

1.) Download "PuTTYgen"

1.1) Generate key

... click Generate and paste the string from the puttygen window (looks like "ssh-rsa AAAAB3...hclQ==rsa-key-20100227") in a text file on your Desktop "id_rsa.pub" & save (protect) your "private key"

1.2) Transfer key to android

adb push  C:\Users\[USER]\Desktop\id_rsa.pub /data/dropbear/.ssh/authorized_keys

Android:

adb shell

chmod 600 /data/dropbear/.ssh/authorized_keys
echo "/system/xbin/busybox sh" > /data/dropbear/.profile
chmod 755 /data/dropbear /data/dropbear/.ssh
chmod 644 /data/dropbear/dropbear*host_key
chown root.root /data/dropbear/.ssh/authorized_keys
killall dropbear
dropbear -v -s -g

Linux:
-> SSH with public-key Authentication


Windows:
PuTTY Download Page

2.) Download "putty"

2.1) Connect to your Spica

Connection: > "SSH" > "Auth" > ... browse / choose your saved "private key"

Sesseion: > enter the IP-Address from your Android ... and press Enter

in terminal (android) there's no such command like : adduser. useradd, and passwd
maybe if we can create a user in our device, it would works

defauld user will be definitely root (like other linux), but a root user should have a password

ok. I will try this ... ->"If you use `puttygen` paste the string from
the puttygen window (looks like "ssh-rsa
AAAAB3...hclQ==rsa-key-20100227") in
`authorized_keys`.
(Do not try to rename the file created by
puttygen - it's format is incompatible with
dropbear)"

Can I / someone move this Thread to "Forum: 2.2 (Froyo)"? - because it only woks with CM

login using rsa keys then
oh, try using tunnelier, it has better feature than putty
also allows alternative method to authenticate..

Which is mean that spicagenmod is not working too.

If you want an app that can set up the ssh server easily whenever you want I can recommend QuickSSHd. It costs a couple of bucks thou. Basically it's a app for controlling dropbear but it's nice to have so the server does not always run.

Also there's a free one, SSHDroid, but I haven't tested that.
