RESOLVED bluetooth linux box not discoverable

success (thanks to the bluez mailing lists)!!!

there appears to be a bug in the bluez-libs 3.4 which means the linux box will NOT be discoverable (ie ISCAN disabled)

to fix this, youretc-bluetooth-hcid.conf must contains the line "discovto 0" -- this option not listed in the hcid.conf manpage (unfortunately).. below is my working cfg file

options { autoinit yes; security auto; pairing multi; pbuttkey "1234"; }

device { clbutt 0x3e0100;

iscan enable; pscan enable; discovto 0; ### IMPORTANT ###

lm accept; lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park; }

restarting everything, i am able to have incoming connections and hciconfig reports the correct cfg (PSCAN and ISCAN listed):

# hciconfig -a hci0: Type: USB BD Address: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ACL MTU: 192:8 SCO MTU: 64:8 UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN Features: 0xff 0xff 0x0f 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 Packet type: DM1 DM3 DM5 DH1 DH3 DH5 HV1 HV2 HV3 Link policy: RSWITCH HOLD SNIFF PARK Link mode: SLAVE ACCEPT Clbutt: 0x3e0100 Service Clbuttes: Networking, Rendering, Capturing, Object Transfer, Audio Device Clbutt: Computer, Uncategorized HCI Ver: 1.1 (0x1) HCI Rev: 0x20d LMP Ver: 1.1 (0x1) LMP Subver: 0x20d Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio (10)

and now 'obexftp -b -l' works!
