Re: [Gumstix-users] ssh over bluetooth

[Thierry G. <thi...@re...>]

Hi Justin,

There are two pages on the Wiki which may help :
http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Networking#Bluetooth_Personal_Area_Network
http://docwiki.gumstix.org/Bluetooth_on_OS_X#Setting_up_PAN

I followed the instructions in the second one, and they work (I have a  
Mac). If the first page does not help you, I think that you could use  
the Gumstix's side on the second instructions and use the following  
commands on your Linux box to connect to the Gumstix (you may have to  
adapt them to your config) :
#/etc/init.d/bluetooth start
#hciconfig hci0 up
#pand --listen --role NAP
#ifconfig bnep0 192.168.0.1 up
Then, if it worked, you should be able to ping 192.168.0.2 and to  
connect via ssh.
