Am I correct? yes, except that rfcomm_pppd(8) will automatically run ppp(8) on each rfcomm connection. you do not have to do anything special. all you need to do is to add configuration entry into /etc/ppp/ppp.conf for bluetooth clients and tell rfcomm_pppd(8) to use this entry (label). the examples of such configuration entry can be found in rfcomm_pppd(8) man page. > But I have a problem: is sdpd part of the sdp-1.5 package?

"sdp bluetooth" is not a good google > keyword to find it. sdpd(8) was reimplemented under BSD license and committed to the main source tree. i have patches for the rfcomm_pppd(8) that will allow it to use stock sdpd(8). i'm waiting for permission to commit them. after that you should not use sdp-1.5. from geocities. thanks, max __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
