Nice. Now I got it. Thank you.

Sorry I wasn't clear. Here is the script(1) to produce the problem:
thinkpad# rfcomm_pppd -c -a 00:04:61:80:6f:e4 -C LAN -l bluetooth
rfcomm_pppd: Could not obtain RFCOMM channel: Socket is not connected
thinkpad# rfcomm_pppd -c -a 00:04:61:80:6f:e4 -C 1 -l bluetooth
thinkpad# ifconfig tun0
tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500
inet 192.168.0.87 --> 192.168.0.120 netmask 0xffffffff
Opened by PID 47776
MAC OS and Windows doesn't ask for Channel number. They recognize LAN and
connect to channel 1. Linux user always gets refused. (so strange the Linux
bluetooth LAN tool pand(1) don't have a parameter to specify what channel
to connect to.)

Do you mean your homepage? You forgot I am in China I cannot go to
geocities. To help me you sent me your sdp package through email a week
ago:)
Today the iBook problem is (I guess) solved. I found this line in ppp.log:
Mar 3 10:59:34 dino ppp[2274]: Phase: deflink: ** Too many ECHO LQR
packets lost **
I disabled lqr, the iBook don't have the problem any more.

Thank you for the advice.
