Re: [Bluez-users] Obex File Transfers between Nokia and BlueZ

["Albert Huang" <albert@csail.mit.edu>]

obexftpd is old and outdated.  Additionally, I think it hardcodes the
RFCOMM channel number to 10, so if you're going to use it, you'll
probably need to use sdptool --channel=10 instead of --channel=9.
It's better if you use an obex server that does SDP registration
automatically.  I think collin mulliner's sobexsrv does this, although
I haven't tried it myself.
http://www.mulliner.org/bluetooth/sobexsrv.php

In the past, I've had success with obexserver (
http://packages.debian.org/stable/comm/obexserver ) which is just as
old and outdated as obexftpd, but it works.  To use obexserver, you'll
also need to register a service with sdptool:  sdptool add
--channel=10 OPUSH ; obexserver.
