Hi Marcel, Here is the patch we talked about, This was the original thread : http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=36194832 It 's an option to make rfcomm kind of persitent. It can be used like this : rfcomm --raw watch 0 20 cat {} or rfcomm --raw listen 0 20 cat {} Now, you can connect from another computer like this "rfcomm --raw connect 0 20" and any incoming rfcomm data will be displayed. Typing "echo test >> /dev/rfcomm0" on client will display test on the other computer. When the client disconnect : - The "rfcomm listen" will exit - The "rfcomm watch" will restart listening with the same parameters. Regards, Frederic.
