I tried btpand() to share the uplink connection, bridging the Ethernet interface and tap0 created for btpand, between two hosts running 9.2-STABLE i386. In /etc/bluetooth, hosts and hcsecd.conf were edited with bdaddr of devices found with

, then I enabled hcsecd() and sdpd() in /etc/rc.conf. Each host can l2ping() the other. Then tap0 is created on both.The BT server runs
btpand -d ubt0 -s NAP -i tap0
The BT client finds the NAP server with sdpcontrol. It was to run
btpand -d ubt0 -s PANU -i tap0 -a bt_name_of_server
, but dumps a core. Then I tried with GN instead of the NAP/PANU service. It seems to work for a few short packets (DHCP, ping, ftp ftp.freebsd.org up to anonymous login) but hangs soon after a few longer packets. Since the server was not even responding to l2ping, the only way to restart everything was to unplug the USB dongle from it.Any ideas to fix this?
