Alright...here's the problem...

I'm trying to uninstall OpenSSH on 1.1.1 because it's not working. I go into the installer app, click to uninstall openSSH, but it gives me an error saying:

Main script execution failed!

Any ideas how to uninstall it and reinstall it so i can get it working?

thanks

do you have bsd installed?

yes, bsd is installed.

I read in a dif post to delete dropbear stuff, so i deleted that, and then tried reuninstalling, still won't work

You might have to reinstall openSSH.

goto /private/var/root/Library/Installer
there is a file called LocalPackages.plist
make a backup of it.
open it and find the entry for openSSH and remove it.

it should look something like this

Then you should be able to reinstall openSSH.

Note: You might have to exit Installer or restart your phone.

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK

well...how do i get to that file if i can't ssh into my phone?

i have a pc btw...not a mac...

use iphuc.

The commands you need to know are putfile & getfile which are pretty self explanatory

alright...will give it a shot...thnx a lot man
