Mount iphone cable using itunnel (libiphone-libplist) and Debian

Who owns an iPhone knows that to be able to navigate the folders you have to use ssh and a WiFi connection. But I have experienced a cable with the help of itunnel, and frankly I find it more practical, since I do everything on my Debian, without using the mobile-terminal 'Iphone. To get started all we need is:
At this point you have to install a few things you need:
apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool libgnutls-dev libusb-dev libfuse-dev libglib2.0-dev libxml2-dev libreadline5-dev cmake swig ssh sshfs
Install libplist:
cd cartella_libplist
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install
Install libiphone:
cd cartella_libiphone
. / autogen.sh
. / configure
make
make install
Now we go to our home and in the folder. Ssh create a config file like this:
Host myphone
HostName 127.0.0.1
Port 3023
Mobile User
ControlMaster car
ControlPath / tmp/master-% r @% h:% p
ServerAliveInterval 300
UserKnownHostsFile ~ / .ssh / myphone_known_hosts
RemoteForward 2202 localhost: 22
We at our home a folder to mount the iPhone
mkdir iphone
open ssh on your iPhone and enter in the folder itunnel
cd itunnel-0.0.5
root:
. / itunnel 3023
appears to us that:
DebianBox: / home/edmond/itunnel-0.0.5 #. / Itunnel 3023get_iPhone () success
- Successfully got device
ssh server waiting for connection
We open another shell and as root:
sshfs-p 3023 root @ localhost: / var / mobile / Media / home / user / iphone
will be asked for your password:
edmond @ DebianBox: ~ $ su
Password:
DebianBox: / home / edmond # sshfs-p 3023 root @ localhost: / var / mobile / Media / home / Edmond / iphone
root @ localhost's password:
DebianBox: / home / edmond #
Now open nautilus as root, and we will find our Iphone mounted.
