Thanks. yes, it is possible. FreeBSD box should provide LAN service. you will need to use ppp(8) + rfcomm_pppd(8) in server mode + SDPD from snapshot's ports/ directory. please check rfcomm_pppd(8) man page for examples. also future Bluetooth chapter for FreeBSD handbook can be found at http://www.oook.cz/bsd/handbook/bluetooth.html thanks, max __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
