[Bluez-devel] PC to PC file transfer

[Bluez-devel] PC to PC file transfer

[jose]

Hi,

I want to be able to transfer a file between two Linux
PCs. 

I have compiled blueobex(ussp-push), on both my linux
PCs.How do I compile obexserver OR what do I do with
obexserver?

Also, what exactly are the steps to transfer a file.
Need help on this, pls. 

It says: ./ussp-push /dev/ttyU0 ./file.gif name.gif:
where name.gif is the name to transfer the file as and
file.gif is the actual file, 

can the file be anywhere on the PC, or
should it be in the current folder where Iam running
ussp-push from?

mayankbatra, on this list has given the
inputs(regarding ussp-push),thanks..

Rgds,
Jose

I know gnome has a obex server (It comes as part of Fedora, not sure
what other platfoms) that can run as a applet on the taskbar. I've
played with it quickly getting objects from a phone but not another pc

Try using the application blueobex (ussp-push). You
can find it from a Google Search.

First form the rfcomm channel and then use the
application ussp-push to transfer the file.
On the receiving side u will nedd the application
obexserver which again u will find on google.

the easiest way is to create a PAN with pand between your two machines
and then use tools like ftp or scp.

But in general I think it would be nice to have a some more ad-hoc file
transfer tool. Would maybe OBEX be suitable for that?

We have for example that situation quite often that you sit together
with some people and their notebooks or other prtable devices but you do
not have a common network or simply do not want that (imagine a business
meeting). But you want to share some docs, files, etc.. Mostly small
stuff, not whole movies ;)
Last time I was in a meeting guess what happened: They tucked out a
floppy disk!

For those purposes something like
	bt-receive-file (waiting)
	bt-send-file <BD-ADDR> <file>
would be nice.

AFAIK, there is a little tool for Gnome called gnome-bluetooth, which
does what you want.

it's composed of an applet which stays in backgorund and waits for files
to arrive to your box, and a program (gnome-obex-send) to choose a file
and send them to another host.

pity, the working version requires at least Gnome 2.6, which I hate for
many reason, and the previous version, for Gnome 2.4, is as broken it
won't work :(

if I recall it right, there is also a similar tool for kde, but I don't
have any experience with it.

there are some programs for that job, but actually I like an obextool
merged into bluez-utils that is capable of doing things like this, but I
never finally finished it. Feel free to send me patches to add such a
tool.

Regards

Marcel
