Hi Marcel,

I am sending a initial skeleton of pand DBUS support. I was not able to
access BlueZ CVS due firewall permissions.

The path is based on bluez-utils-2.17.

The Makefile.am file was changed. Run aclocal, automake and autoconf tools.

The BLUEZ DBUS PAN service uses the system bus. Check the following
items before run the sample client:
1. checking dbus-daemon
   type: $ps -ef | grep dbus
   "dbus-daemon --system"  should be displayed
   If not, install dbus-1 package

2. check dbus service configuration file
   The file bluez.conf must be located at: /etc/dbus-1/system.d/
   See Appendix 1 of DBUS.TXT file located in pand directory
  After copy bluez.conf file I suggest restart dbus-daemon

3. running the bluez pan daemon (requires root permission)
   type $pand --dbus or pand -b --nodetach
   check if the pand process is running: $ps -ef | grep pand
   if not, read the system log: $tail /var/log/syslog

4. extract the client  (doesn't require root permission)
   The client calls basic functions. This is a usage sample
   for gamming, UPnP, ... A library can be developed to
   hide D-Bus functions.

Suggestions and comments are welcome!

Regarding dbus-0.33 support, I decided implement using a compatible
version(0.23). When a stable version become available we can think
on move to the new version.

Claudio.
