[Bluez-users] hciconfig delkey question

Hi:

I am trying to delete a linkkey by way of 'hciconfig delkey <btaddr>' where
<btaddr> is the bluetooth address linkkey that I want to remove.  I can see
that there is a directory under /var/lib/bluetooth in the same name as
<btaddr>.   I execute the command and hciconfig returns the same lines as if
I run it with no argument (returning info about my only hci interface,
hci0).  And I can still see <btaddr> directory under /var/lib/bluetooth.

Am I missing something about how this command should behave?  I was
expecting that after the command, the directory under
/var/lib/bluetooth/<btaddr> would be removed.

Thanks for any tip/pointer.


Mark

the delkey option deletes a key from the Bluetooth chip and not the host
filesystem. Use the D-Bus API method RemoveBonding() for that.
