X-BeenThere: freebsd-bluetooth@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Using Bluetooth in FreeBSD environments List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Wed, 24 Mar 2004 02:49:23 -0000 Hi, I have a couple of bluetooth USB dongles (made by BlueGear), and would like to use these to connect my laptop to my home LAN. I went through the basic setup steps described here http://www.oook.cz/bsd/bluetooth.html and got my gongle up and running on FreeBSD. It can also see the other dongle on the laptop, e.g. the # hccontrol -n ubt0hci inquiry returns the other device's BT_ADDR etc. Also, the other device does see the FreeBSD one. My question is, now what? I"d like somehow to let the laptop access the LAN on which the FreeBSD system is, so I need some server on the FreeBSD side (I've downloaded the sdp-1.5 package but I could not find much (any) docs/info on its use unfortunately) and a Windows client on the laptop - any pointers/advice will be much appreciated. Thanks. -- Cheers, -Dima.
