Ya, I can do that. I can connect to one pan using bnep0 acting as a slave.
Then I can make it a master on bnep1 and conncet to it form another pc. When
I do "pand --show", it shows both interfaces bnep0 and bnep1 and their
connections.
However, I cannot communicate between the two networks. When I even try to
ping the master of the other network it comes up host unreachable. I don't
know why this is?

this is not a Bluetooth problem, because this is TCP/IP stuff. You
should read somehting about IP forwarding, bridging, routing etc.
