Hi Marcel and everybody else in the list,
I am writing an applications that, among other things, sends an OBEX
Push to a device (e.g. a mobile phone). This is working fine, except for
one thing: whenever I send something to the device, the first time it
always asks for the PIN. I have seen that, for example, kbluetooth (the
KDE Bluetooth framework) and Impronto can send a file without pairing
first. How can I do that?
I am sure that I am missing something, but still have not found what. In
my application, I call to socket(), bind() to a local address
(BDADDR_ANY) and then connect(). It is at the connect stage that the
pairing takes place. I have been following the code of kbluetooth and
all I can see is that I am doing essentially the same.
Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Pedro Monjo

Thank you very much for your suggestion. It was indeed what you said. I
was sending the data to the service "OBEX File Transfer" instead of
"OBEX Object Push". Now it works exactly as expected.
Cheers,
Pedro

Are you sure that you are connecting to the rfcomm channel of the obex push
service? All others require authentication usually. Maybe you should have a
look at hcidump's output to see the difference and at which point the phone
is requesting authentication.

run "hcidump -X -V" as root at the same time and show us the result.

Thank you for your fast answer.
I am not quite sure about the security mode the device is. How can I get
it? In any case, I have executed (as root):
$ hciconfig hci0 noencrypt
$ hciconfig hci0 noauth
but still no success. With the same computer and configuration and as a
normal user, if I send a file from KDE using kbtobexclient, it works as
expected (no PIN requested, just the confirmation for receiving the
message), so I believe that there is some other things to do. I guess
that it should be a library call or somthing similar. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Pedro

it seems that your device is working in security mode 3 and then
actually every ACL connection requests the authentication. The simple
answer is to use security mode 1/2.
