Hi Michal,

setting auth and encrypt in hcid.conf enables security mode 3, which is
not what most people want. Leave it off and use security mode 1/2 and
let the remote device trigger the security mechanism.

Regards

Marcel

Hi,

security can be enabled using security optin in hcid.conf - your dongle mus=
t=20
support it.

How can you tell whether a connection is encrypted or not in Bluez if
security mode is 2?
