[Bluez-users] Connects... Then disconnects

[Ned Lowe]

Dear all,

I was hoping you could help me with a rather annoying problem I am
experiencing.

I have just set up the Belkin F8T003 Bluetooth USB Adapter under
Mandrake 10.0.  I am trying to connect (not simultaneously) to two
machines, one XP and the other an Apple PowerBook.

I can connect from Linux to my XP box no problem:

rfcomm connect rfcomm0 xx:xx:xx...

I can *see* my Apple PowerBook Bluetooth adapter from Linux and
vice-versa, and can pair from the PowerBook.  However if I run the above
command:

rfcomm connect rfcomm0 yy:yy:yy...

for the PowerBook connection, then I get:

Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused

The funny thing is that the PowerBook connection listing shows a
connection being established for about one second, then loses it.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot,
Ned Lowe

you need a service that is listening on that RFCOMM channel on the
PowerBook side.
