Could someone please explain to me how I connect from a USB bluetooth dongle to a bluetooth serial dongle that uses a PIN. I try this:

  # l2ping 00:0B:CE:00:7A:8F
  Can't connect: Permission denied

A simultaneous hcidump shows:

  # hcidump -V
  HCI sniffer - Bluetooth packet analyzer ver 1.17
  device: hci0 snap_len: 1028 filter: 0xffffffff
  < HCI Command: Create Connection (0x01|0x0005) plen 13
Quoted 1 line

HCI Event: Command Status (0x0f) plen 4

      Create Connection (0x01|0x0005) status 0x00 ncmd 1

      PIN Code Request Negative Reply (0x01|0x000e) ncmd 1
Quoted 1 line

HCI Event: Connect Complete (0x03) plen 11

status 0x18 handle 41 bdaddr 00:0B:CE:00:7A:8F type ACL encrypt 0x00
Error: Unknown LMP PDU

This is on a Debian/unstable system with:

   bluez-hcidump  1.17-1
   bluez-pin      0.25-1
   bluez-utils    2.15-1

installed. Linux kernel v2.6.11.7.

Thanks!

it seems that the PIN helper program can't be executed. Look at the mailing list archives for help in this case.
