I know very little about bluez, but in my experience
after you entered the passkey on the phone,
you should have been asked on the computer to enter the same passkey.
Under Fedora-7 (which I run)
this facility is provided by bluez-gnome,
which creates an applet in the panel.
When you enter the passkey in the phone
the applet comes alive and asks you for the passkey on the computer.
