9-STABLE and Iphone modem (tethering), anyone succeed ?

[Arno J. Klaassen]

Hello,


does anyone succeed in using an Iphone as modem on 9-STABLE (sources
as of March 16) ?

I follow the instructions from
 'http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=19995' using 'usbmuxd' and
'libimobiledevice' from ports.

When I start 'usbmuxd' I indeed see in dmesg(1) :

  ipheth0: <Apple Inc. iPhone, class 0/0, rev 2.00/0.01, addr 3> on usbus1
  ue0: <USB Ethernet> on ipheth0
  ue0: bpf attached
  ue0: Ethernet address: XXX


I did not find 'ipheth-pair' (or something equiivalent) in ports, I build it from the sources as indicated in the forum-post, but it fails with :


  # ./ipheth-pair -v
  ./ipheth-pair: -14: cannot get lockdown

The corresponsing log from  'usbmuxd -v -v ' says (stripped) :

I hope anyone reading this has had more succes ;-).

Thanx, Arno

NB 1, Iphone not 'jailbroken' 
NB 2, yes 'it works' under Windows
