[Bluez-users] PIN Authentication Problems on MDV 2007

Hi,
I have updated to Mandriva 2007, and I can't figure why, I can't make
things get back working, when I used mdv 2006 all bluez went on OK.

Here is my hcid.conf:
#
# HCI daemon configuration file.
#

# HCId options
options {
# Automatically initialize new devices
autoinit yes;

# Security Manager mode
# none - Security manager disabled
# auto - Use local PIN for incoming connections
# user - Always ask user for a PIN
#
security user;

# Pairing mode
# none - Pairing disabled
# multi - Allow pairing with already paired devices
# once - Pair once and deny successive attempts
pairing multi;

# Default PIN code for incoming connections
passkey "1234";

pin_helper /bin/bluepin;

#dbus_pin_helper;
}

# Default settings for HCI devices
device {
# Local device name
# %d - device id
# %h - host name
name "BlueZ (%d)";

# Local device class
class 0x3e0100;

# Default packet type
#pkt_type DH1,DM1,HV1;

# Inquiry and Page scan
iscan enable; pscan enable;

# Default link mode
# none - no specific policy
# accept - always accept incoming connections
# master - become master on incoming connections,
# deny role switch on outgoing connections
lm accept;

# Default link policy
# none - no specific policy
# rswitch - allow role switch
# hold - allow hold mode
# sniff - allow sniff mode
# park - allow park mode
lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park;
}

/bin/bluepin is no more than a link to kbluetooth pin.

The thing is that, when ever I try to establish a connection, it seems
that BlueZ (or something else) is missing the PIN code.

I'm doing:
hcitool cc 00:50:C2:58:50:00 //To get the connection on
hcitool key 00:50:C2:58:50:00 //To Exchange Link Kety,

I have even tried with hcitool auth 00:50:C2:58:50:00, every time the
result is the same.

hcidump -X -V shows this:
> HCI Event: PIN Code Request (0x16) plen 6
bdaddr 00:50:C2:58:50:00
< HCI Command: PIN Code Request Negative Reply (0x01|0x000e) plen 6
bdaddr 00:50:C2:58:50:00
> HCI Event: Command Complete (0x0e) plen 10
PIN Code Request Negative Reply (0x01|0x000e) ncmd 1
status 0x00 bdaddr 00:50:C2:58:50:00
> HCI Event: Auth Complete (0x06) plen 3
status 0x06 handle 1
Error: PIN or Key Missing

And I never get a Pin Request from the BlueZ side.

Any ideas?

Cheers,
Manuel
