Hello,

I'm trying to use rfcomm_sppd to connect to serial console over
bluetooth, and I'm facing strange issue.
I think the problem is related to creation of new terminal device in my system.

When I run rfcomm_sppd in the foreground, everything works fine:

 $ rfcomm_sppd -a F11
rfcomm_sppd[1488]: Starting on stdin/stdout...
^Crfcomm_sppd[1488]: Signal 2 received. Total 1 signals received
rfcomm_sppd[1488]: Completed on stdin/stdout

$echo $?
0

But when I try to use pty/tty instead of the device, rfcomm_sppd fails
silently with error code 1 and no device is created:

 $ sudo rfcomm_sppd -a F11  -t /dev/ptyp2
 $ echo $?
1
 $ sudo rfcomm_sppd -a F11  -t /dev/ttyp2
 $ echo $?
1
 $ ls /dev/*yp2
zsh: no matches found: /dev/*yp2

Am I missing something?

regards,
Barnaba Turek
