RFCOMM channel 1 behavior differences

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Does Ubuntu, linux kernel 2.6.38.10, running bluez 4.91-0ubuntu1 have a special security policy for incoming rfcomm connections on channel 1, and not other channels?

I ask this because I can create rfcomm connections between two computers on other channels (2, 3, 11, 13, etc.) but the listening computer refuses connections when connection requests come in for channel 1.

I use the following commands:

on listening computer:
	sudo rfcomm listen hci0 <channel>

on connecting computer:
	sudo rfcomm connect hci0 <BD_ADDR> <channel>

When <channel> does not equal 1 both computers connect no with no problem. When <channel> equals 1 I receive the error "Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused"

I tried this in to two different environments. 1) in a X-session and 2) in command line

1) in GUI on the listing computer a dialogue box pops up requesting a pin for pairing. When I click cancel on the dialogue box of the listening machine the error "Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused" appears on the command line of the connecting machine.

2) in command line mode on the listening computer nothing appears and I immediately receive the error "Can't connect RFCOMM socket: Connection refused" on in the command line of the connecting machine

These problems do not arise when attempting to connect on any other channels.

I have searched Google, looked at multiple forum posts on rfcomm connections, looked at forum posts on peoples' problems with rfcomm connections, reviewed this mailing list's archives, and I cannot find my specific problem.

Thank you for any advice you can provide or resources to which you can point me.

Regards,
Isaiah
