[Bluez-users] Howto setup bluetooth network

[Leszek Ciesielski]

Hi,

is there any up-to-date guide for setting a network using
bluez-utils-3-* ? I had searched the web quite extensively, but
everything I found was about bluez-2 . What should I put in
/etc/bluetooth/network.service and /etc/bluetooth/network.conf ?
Tutorials write about 'pand', which is no longer shipped with current
bluez on my distro (Gentoo). I get up to bluez creating pan0 and pan1,
but do not know what to do next - I can't connect from a Windows box that
did communicate with other PCs...

And what does "Failed to claim to interface:" mean? It is always
present in logs and never provides any additional info...

Regards,

skolima

check wiki.bluez.org for examples on the network service. It still needs
some work to make it fully specification compliant, but that shouldn't
be far away. Patches are always welcome.

Provide the full log and check the source code for the function that
would trigger this error message.
