kex_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

[wb4r]

Hi

I am having issues connecting to my device via sudo iproxy 22 44 and ssh root@localhost. I have tried with two devices - iPad and iPhoneX both JB with uncov0er.

In both cases the error is the same. I've tried jailbreaking both of them again and rebooting my Mac but I keep getting the same error.

$ sudo iproxy 22 44                                               
Password: [...]

New connection for 22->44, fd = 5

Requesting connecion to USB device handle 6 (serial: af009 [...] b7b13e), port 44
Error connecting to device: No such file or directory

and

$ ssh root@localhost                                                      
kex_exchange_identification: Connection closed by remote host

I am connected via USB and can ssh to them either ssh root@deviceIP or

sudo iproxy 44 22

ssh -p 44 root@localhost

I think am missing something too obvious. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

Edit: forgot to say that I am able to run this repo by manually modifying lines 56, 580, 581 and 582 but still curious as per why am not able to run it as above.
