Bug Description

Binary package hint: bluez-utils

In 6.10 and 7.04, the passkey in hcid.conf is not exchanged with a device when using ppp (pon). (exchange fails)

Everything works fine in 6.06 because hcid.conf can specify an external passkey program.

All of this is being done through an ssh connection (actually, ssh -X connection).

The situation: I use dial-up via a bluetooth connection through my cell phone.

I have downgraded to 6.06 LTS.

Feel free to contact me for more information.
