[Bluez-users] PIN request for embedded Bluez

[Bluez-users] PIN request for embedded Bluez

[Kelvin Xu]

Dear all.

I have install Bluez on my ARM-board. I managed to partly established a PAN 
connection to my mobile phone. However, i could not finish the connection as 
my phone would require my board to respond to its PIN authentification.

I have no problem doing that on a Fedora Core 5 computer, as there will be a 
prompt for the PIN.
There are however no prompt for a text-based Linux. How do i respond to the 
challenge PIN in such an environment?

Thanks for any advice given

Regards,
Kelvin

when running a bluez-utils-3.x you can use the passkey-agent.c example
to enter the PIN via command line or you can easily write a program by
yourself.

Hi,

I do not quite understand what u meant by using passkey-agent.c example. 
Could you elaborate a bit? Do you meant that i have to compile the file 
separately?/

Regards,
Kelvin

it will be compiled, but not installed. It is example code. It is not
meant for daily use. It is meant for learning and demonstration purpose.
