I have been stepping into pand. There is nothing I can find on this list about getting pand working. There are some instructions on wifi.bluez.org that seem to be redhatish, but....

I have edited /etc/sysconfig/pand:

PANDARGS='--listen --role GN --master'

I have created a /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bnep0:

DEVICE=bnep0 BOOTPROTO=none ONBOOT=no IPADDR=192.168.201.101 NETMASK=255.255.255.0

I run: service pand start

nothing happens.

I look at: /etc/rc.d/init.d/pand and see:

   [ -x /etc/bluetooth/pan/system-up ] && 

/etc/bluetooth/pan/system-up

huh? My system does not have an /etc/bluetooth/pan directory. there is a

/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-bnep

what am I missing here?

So I decided to create an /etc/bluetooth/pan/dev-up file as I found at: http://ph.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=598890

#!/bin/bash ifup bnep0

Still nothing. pand is not starting and there are no messages in /var/log/messages
