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

Hi,
You can try out couple of steps, to test ...
1. whether the change in "security" settings actually reflect on interface..
Try and pair with the device, with security "none" or "auto", and if you get relevant messages on remote device, then its fine.
2. If the above is successful, then it must be something very specific to obex lib you are using, I've used obexftp + openObex and didn't find any such problems. [with security "none" and "auto"]
Regards,
Pavan

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

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

#pkt_type DH1,DM1,HV1;

# Default link policy

}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
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?

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.]
