Hay,
I want to give users at the computer science labs the ability to use BT headsets.
to do that they need to run hcitool.

Quoted 1 line

From my experience at home, I must setuid hcitool to work for a user.

When I tried giving permition from sudo , hcitool complained it can't open sockets.
How can I use sudo with hcitool?

the OS is Mandriva 10.2
