How to set up Bluetooth PAN on Fedora 10

In the beginning I referred to
http://bluez.sourceforge.net/contrib/HOWTO-PAN
and
http://blog.myfenris.net/?tag=bluetooth-pan.

I'd like to express my appreciation to the web
sites mentioned above.

Now I am writing this article intended for users
who can set up Bluetooth PAN on Windows
though this is the first time that they set up
Bluetooth PAN on Fedora 10.

1. You will need to make ifcfg-bnep0.

   $ su
   # vi /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-bnep0
      DEVICE=bnep0
      BOOTPROTO=DHCP
      ONBOOT=no

2. You will need to make connection.sh according to
   your convenience for connecting Bluetooth PAN.

   # vi connection.sh
      #!/bin/bash
      modprobe bnep
      pand --connect 00:00:00:00:00:00
      # Put the MAC address of your bluetooth device,
      # such as a pocket PC or a smart phone,
      # into 00:00:00:00:00:00.
      ifconfig bnep0
      ifup bnep0
   # chmod a+x connection.sh

3. You will need to open the Internet Sharing Connection
   after pairing the bluetooth device, such as a pocket PC
   or a smart phone, with your Laptop PC.
   Regarding pairing, see other useful web sites.

4. You will need to go to System -> Administration ->
   Network, double click on the bnep0, set the bnep0
   to start on boot, quit Network Configuration and
   reboot.

5. Execute connection.sh.

   $ su
   # ./connection.sh

   When I executed connection.sh twice,
   I could connect Bluetooth PAN on Fedora 10.

Finally, I will be happy to assist you in setting up
Bluetooth PAN on Fedora 10.
