Subject: [Bluez-users] OBEXFTP: Mavin? Whats the default PIN?

After your help, I installed d-bus and I was able to use hciconfig, hcitools.
My Absolute-box sees my SE K750i.

My biggest need is to get mp3 files to the phone. When this is working (pffff), I will try to get pictures of the phone to the laptop. In the end I hope to do things with my agenda.

Googling around learned me I had to use OpenObex/Obexftp to transfer files between laptop and phone. I managed to install this software (I think).

Eventually, I could give the command 'obexftp -b -p somefile'. Scanning starts, phone is found, tries to connect on channel 6, phone asks if unknown device is permitted to have access, and then it asks for a PIN. All seems ok, it's like when I'm using my windows-machine.

But where can I find the PIN? Googling learned there should be a file PIN in the /etc/bluetooth-dir. It isn't there. I made one, but that didn't have any effect.

Googling learned there's a prog which is needed to tranfer the PIN? All the commands I encountered were not recognized. Do I need extra software (I'm not using KDE or Gnome, so don't have access to some tools which are mentioned).

I looked into the hcid.conf, but it seems to me it's all about incoming (to the laptop) connections? I hoped to get rid off the PIN with 'security none', but that didn't help either.

What also puzzles me is that the phone tells me ' mavin' tries to connect.
According to what I read, I expected 'BlueZ' (found this also in hcid.conf). 'mavin' seems to be a (hard to configure) CF-card, I'm working with an USB-dongle (lsusb doesn't show 'mavin', I expected it to see there).

I'v got the feeling I'm close to the solution, but after hours of trying/searching, please help.

(Another unsolved issue is that when I ask the phone to search for bluetooth-devices, my laptop doesn't show up).

Thanks in advance,
Jeu
