Hi Matan,
Thanks for your tutorial. I followed the instructions but still can't connect. I added the section for /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm but the command "rfcomm bind 2" wouldn't work until I renamed the file /etc/bluetooth/rfcomm.conf.
Also, on my N900, /etc/ppp/ip-up.d is an existing directory. I renamed the directory and created a text file with the commands and chmod. Is that the correct thing to do?
Finally, when I try to connect I get the following error:
Nokia-N900-42-11:/etc/bluetooth# pppd call gprs
pppd: The remote system is required to authenticate itself
pppd: but I couldn't find any suitable secret (password) for it to use to do so.
Searching on the web I found hints to add "noauth" to the script, so I added it to /etc/ppp/peers/gprs. Doing this got rid of the error message but I'm still unable to connect. Can you help me? Thanks.
-Pete
