I know Slackware has hotplug scripts. You might want to look there.

I currently have a setup where I have a Bluetooth adapter on a Linux box, and one on Windows. Everything is configured properly. I connect from the Windows Bluetooth adapter to the Linux one via "Local Area Connection 2" in XP over TCP/IP. I manually type "ifconfig bnep0 192.168.3.1" to assign the adapter an IP, then I have to restart DHCPD to acquire an IP address over Bluetooth. This all works great.
My first question is: Is there a way to recognize when a connection is made, so I can create a script or some code to automatically set bnep0 to 192.168.3.1 and restart the dhcp server?
I only have 2 Bluetooth adapters. What if I used a 3rd from windows to connect to Linux at the same time another one is connected. Will it allow multiple connections? Will it show up as bnep1 or still use bnep0?

All distributions have hotplug scripts inside. Just use you package system and
install it
