[obexftp] code for accessing cell phone in bluetooth

Hello.

I'd like to send files from/to my laptop to a Nokia C3 cellphone.

I have setup the bluetooth stack with hciconfig, and I can l2ping the
phone.

When I try to initiate a connection with "obexftp -b <MAC of
cellphone> -l", the cellphone asks me if I want to authorize the
connexion, and then asks me for a code (it seems it must be digits
only).

I tried 0000, 1234, 12345 and 9999, since I saw on the web that it can
be the default code, but none works. I can't find anywhere an option
on the cellphone to set this code.

Any hint?

Thanks!

Yes, you need to set the Bluetooth Pairing PIN for that device. This can 
easily be achieved using the bluetooth support for e.g. Gnome or KDE or with 
Bluez command line tools. You have to enter it two times, once on each side of 
the connection.

You can possible avoid that PIN by using ObexPush protocol instead of FBS 
protocol, e.g. using -U none.

Thanks for the tip; I looked into that, but it seems that I must use
passkey-agent to set the pairing PIN; however my bluez (4.91) doesn't
have passkey-agent, and bluez-utils seem deprecated for bluez-4.* ?

By the way I'm using a 3.1.5 kernel, if it's any use to know that.

I'll look into that too.

Thanks again! :^)

$ bluetooth-agent 
Bluetooth agent ver 4.96
Usage:
   agent [--adapter adapter-path] [--path agent-path] <passkey> [<device>]
