Hi!

I've having reading m= any sites and found that to bind a port for
bluetooth i need rfcomm. I'v= e also tried the steps in doing it but it
doesn't seem like what I really wanted.

My objective is to make = a USB Bluetooth dongle work as a Serial port
(i.e ttyS0). I've a USB Blu= etooth dongle and a RS232 Bluetooth device.
This is to emulate a serial = cable replacement.
A simple diagram of what I really want to achieve is osmething like
= this:

|LinuxPC| USB<-->Bluetooth ~~~~~~ Bluetooth<-->RS2= 32 |LinuxPC|

I guess you are using rs232 bluetooth dongle in the= right side. Then first of all, you need to know how to get the dongl= e works. For the usb dongle , kernel should dynamic detect and what you nee= d to do is to setup hcid. For the RS232 dongle, you need additional command= hciattach to setup the dongle and run hcid.=20

Up to now , you should get something by "hciconfig -= a". Then you should use rfcomm command from bluez-util to setup the li= nk between computer.
