problems encountered: multiple remotes can't= connect to the same server.

i see that the accept method (unlike = tcp implementation) returns the server port upon accepting an incoming conn= ection. for instance, if the server is listening on port 16, when any remote connects = to the server, the server port 16 is used to establish end-to-end connectio= n with the client. now, another device cannot connect to the same server un= til the first remote disconnects. this problem stops us from using multiple= remotes with a single linux server.

There is no such restriction in hardware or blu= etooth software stack.  Multiple clients can be simultaneously connect= ed to the same RFCOMM channel on a server.  Use hcidump -X -V to find = out where the connection fails.  Make sure that the server is always t= he master and that the clients are always the slaves.  This probably r= equires a role switch after each connect.
