That said, I am also unsure of how to get Bluetooth working for my Treo as the handbook is clearly out of date. I see several Bluetooth files in /etc which probably allow things to work without rc.bluetooth, but I am unsure of how to configure them. There is a man page on hcsecd which I am reading. In any case, the handbook is clearly out of date in this area and I will try to figure it out as available time allows. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
