Hi, all
When pushing a file to bluetooth mobile phone from a Linux PC, how to
disable bluetooth authentication mechanism (in kernel or user level ?
), so that the phone won't prompt a window ask for PIN code?
I'm a freshman on bluez, now I'm trying to write an application on
Linux PC, to send files to mobile phones with OBEX. The PC has a USB
bluetooth stick to communication with the phone.
Now I have successfully sent a file to phone using the following commands:
1. "hcitool scan" and "sdptool browse"
2. "passkey-agent --default 1234" and "ussp-push --dev 0
BTADDR@CHANNEL desk.jpg desk.jpg"
but the phone ask for a PIN code at the start.
To get rid of this, I had tried to comment out
"start_security_manager()" in bluez-utils-3.7/hcid/main.c, and
recompile it, then restart the bluetooth service. But PIN code was
still prompted, and after if I input some characters, the command
"ussp-push --dev 0 --debug BTADDR@CHANNEL desk.jpg desk.jpg", failed
with the following error:
root@debian:~/bluetooth# pushing file desk.jpg

Seems you are using BlueZ -3.37, look in the hcid.conf file in /etc/bluetooth, it should have a keyword "security", make the option to none.
[I assume its says "user" currently.]

Hi, Pavan
Thanks for your reply. I had tried this before, and tried it again
just now, but it still doesn't work.
The following are my steps, pls help to check if I missed any steps, THX!
1. change "security user;" to "security none;" in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf
2. Restart the bluetooth service: # /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart
3. (Optional: I tried twice, once with this step, and the other without)
Start passkey-agent: # passkey-agent --default 1234
4. ussp-push --dev 0 --debug 00:01:02:03:04:05@11 desk.jpg desk.jpg &
root@debian:~/bluetooth#
pushing file desk.jpg
name=desk.jpg, size=24762
__obex_connect: client_context_t = 0x80540f0
Registered transport
Set user data
Created new objext
cobex_write

my /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf configuration are as following:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
# HCId options
options {
autoinit yes;
security none;
pairing multi;
passkey "1234";
}
# Default settings for HCI devices
device {
name "pass1234";
# Local device class
class 0x3e0100;
# Default packet type
#pkt_type DH1,DM1,HV1;
# Inquiry and Page scan
iscan enable; pscan enable;
# Default link mode
lm accept;
# Default link policy
lp rswitch,hold,sniff,park;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this configuration correct?
My Linux version is:
root@debian:~/bluetooth# uname -a
Linux debian 2.6.18-6-686 #1 SMP Sun Feb 10 22:11:31 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
Any more information needed?
THX
