And hoping that a person could have the same passkey with all the public BT-devices. witch has no input og output capabilities) This passkey agent that you talk about, was to be placed in the public device i suppose. Since a person has to use the same passkey with all the public BT-devices, I need some sentralized passkey agent. I=B4ll have to think of some other idea of doing this... -- Tripas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
