The aim is to be able to dump files from cellphone to server via bluetooth (without any direct Server access required), then access sent files over the ethernet network via a secondary computer for sorting/renaming etc to correct folder. |

! 2. Check to see if your USB Bluetooth Dongle is attached and recognised |
| |
|
27 |
|
| |
|
28 |
"lsusb" - should show 'Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Cambridge Silicon Radio, Ltd Bluetooth Dongle (HCI mode)' |
| |
|
29 |
|
| |
|
30 |
<br> |
| |
|
31 |
|
| |
|
32 |
! 3. Once installed, restart bluetooth daemon - unsure if this is necessary - documentation I read suggested it was... |
| |
|
33 |
|
| |
|
34 |
"/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart" |
| |
|
35 |
|
| |
|
36 |
<br> |
| |
|
37 |
|
| |
|
38 |
! 4.0 Check to see if our BT adapter is installed and what its capabilities are |
| |
|
39 |
|
| |
|
40 |
"hciconfig -a" Should give something _similar_ to |

! 4.1 Check our BT adapters hardware MAC Address and see if the bluez BT system has done any configuring with it |

Check in /var/lib/bluetooth/00:10:60:32:3A:93 NOTE These numbers/colons constitute a MAC Address - note the fact that the MAC address is the same in 4.1 as it is in 4.0<br> |

|
72 |
|
| |
|
73 |
<br> |
| |
|
74 |
|
| |
|
75 |
! 5. Configure 'main.conf' in /etc/bluetooth - these appear to be the new location for BlueZ config |
| |
|
76 |
|
| |
|
77 |
'Default adapter name' is used to label your BT adapter, so when you do a BT search on other BT devices, this is the name your Computer shows up as<br> |
| |
|
78 |
Normally the default 'Name = %h-%d' uses your Computers HostName for the BT adapters name - recommend leaving as-is. |
| |
|
79 |
|
| |
|
80 |
<br> |
| |
|
81 |
|
| |
|
82 |
'Default device class'<br> |
| |
|
83 |
"0x4a0100"<br> |
| |
|
84 |
NOTE: this is from what "hciconfig -a" gave us - find 'Class' and copy the similar 0x0xxxx hex? code into your main.conf - my main.conf had 0x000100 as the default value |
| |
|
85 |
|
| |

! 5.1 Make your BT adapter discoverable when you do a BT search from other BT devices |
| |
|
89 |
|
| |
|
90 |
"hciconfig hci0 piscan" - Check back to 'hciconfig' command - note it has a 'UP RUNNING PSCAN' section in it - re-run the (hciconfig) command, note it now has 'UP RUNNING PSCAN ISCAN ' in it - this must be what makes the BT adapter discoverable (i.e. viewable) |

|
| |
|
97 |
! 6. "tail -f /var/log/daemon.log" - Constantly outputs any info from daemons (server processes eg dhcpd, bluetoothd, sambad) to screen |
| |
|
98 |
|
| |
|
99 |
|
| |
|
100 |
! 6.1 Stop the service called 'dbus' and 'bluetooth' - restart both making sure 'dbus' is started BEFORE 'bluetooth'<br> |
| |
|
101 |
|
| |
|
102 |
Do "/etc/init.d/bluetooth stop" and "/etc/init.d/dbus stop" and /etc/init.d/dbus start" and "/etc/init.d/bluetooth start"<br> |
| |
|
103 |
|
| |
|
104 |
|
| |
|
105 |
! 6.2 So far we have tried to do some configuring - now lets see if anything works |
| |
|
106 |
|
| |
|
107 |
Try to do a search for new devices 'Pair New Device' is what I tried on my cellphone. |
| |
|
108 |
|
| |
|
109 |
w00P! - I found my computer 'xxxxxx-0'<br> |
| |
|
110 |
|

|
111 |
Doing the 'tail -f ...daemon.log' command, and trying to connect to my computer gives me<br> |

! Misc notes to self |
| |
|

|
| |
|
151 |
'bluetoothd' is the bluetooth daemon - config files are located in '/etc/default/bluetooth' - this appears to be where BT mice/keyboards are configured. |
| |
|
152 |
|
| |
|
153 |
<br> |
| |
|
154 |
|
| |
|
155 |
Check man page for 'bluetooth-agent' and what it does |
| |
|
156 |
|
| |
|
157 |
|
| |
|
158 |
<br> |
| |
|
159 |
|
| |
|
160 |
Unsure of how the BTd is activated to be ON as a service full-time. |
| |
|

'/var/lib/bluetooth/device-MAC???-address/linkkeys' appears to be the folder (and file 'linkkeys') where the devices 'Pairing' key or 'linkkey' is kept... |
| |
|
166 |
|
| |
|
167 |
<br> |
| |
|
168 |
|
| |
|
169 |
Check out the scripts "./simple-agent" (dot-slash to execute) hidden in '/usr/share/doc/bluez/examples/' |
| |
|

|
| |
|

Appears to be a 'libpam-blue' module under Apt/Dpkg for authenticating Bluetooth devices... ref: PAM |
