Thanks for you all helped me all the way in this week, now I have successfully set up a bluetooth LAN access server (on FreeBSD 5.2), I send everybody a bluetooth usb dodges. MAC OS notebook works fine, Windows 2000 dials in with no problem, my FreeBSD notebook works great. Each computer access desktop computers in the LAN no problem, surf the Internet etc. A Linux user is still fighting his way dialing in, but I think he will figure it out very soon. It's the finest day, the sun is shining and we have bluetooth LAN... Thank you everyone who helped me! On my configuration I setup LAN access server listen to channel 1, and everyone dials in on that channel. I'm not sure of the concept of "channels", sometimes when other people are connected, I use "rfcomm_pppd -c -C LAN -l bluetooth-client" and get "no socket available" prompt, then I use "rfcomm_pppd -c -C 1 -l bluetooth-client" and it works. Sometimes (not very frequently) iBook disconnects and cannot connect anymore unless the bluetooth ppp server restart. (Windows notebook no problem.) Is it because we are sharing channel No.1? Should I register LAN service on channel one through channel six? Please give more advices. When the network work fine and I figured out all the problems, I'll write a guide on my homepage. I hope it can be useful thanks to my mixed OS environment. and I hope you can correct my article by then:) _________________________________________________________________ 与联机的朋友进行交流，请使用 MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com/cn
