I am looking for a way to turn on encryption. Apparently the gnubox application, which I need to get my Nokia 6620 doing TCP/IP over bluetooth, insists on enabling encryption. I have tried: $ hccontrol -n ubt0hci write_encryption_mode 1 $ hccontrol -n ubt0hci read_encryption_mode Encryption mode: Only for point-to-point packets [0x1] However when I look at a connection I see it is not encrypted: $ hccontrol -n ubt0hci read_connection_list Remote BD_ADDR Handle Type Mode Role Encrypt Pending Queue State Nokia6620 7 ACL 0 MAST NONE 0 0 OPEN I see that Linux has a flag in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf to turn on encryption. It also has a -encrypt command line option to dund. Is this a limitation with FreeBSD? -Vance
