0. Initial Advices and aknowlogements

   - I'm working on Kernel 2.4.20 with patch-2.4.21-pre7
   - Compile the kernel
   - Create the rfcomm devices (from rfcomm0 to rfcomm255):

     I=0
     while [ $I -lt 256 ]; do
     if [ ! -c /dev/rfcomm$I ]; then
     mknod -m 666 /dev/rfcomm$I c 216 $I
     fi
     I=`expr $I + 1`
     done

   - I plug the USB devices AFTER the boot.

1. On Linux Execute ./inicia.bluetooth.sh

#!/bin/bash
modprobe usb-uhci
modprobe hci_usb
modprobe l2cap
modprobe rfcomm
modprobe sco
modprobe bnep
sleep 3
bluefw usb 001/002 
hciconfig hci0 up

hcid
#echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
#iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

sdpd
sdptool add LAN
rfcomm listen 00:07:E0:0C:A0:A9 2
#pppd /dev/rfcomm0 115200 noauth ktune file /etc/ppp/options.palm

2. On Palm Click connect on net prefs

3. On Linux execute ./ppp.sh

#!/bin/bash

pppd /dev/rfcomm0 115200 noauth ktune file /etc/ppp/options.palm \
     ms-dns 143.106.11.129 ms-dns 143.106.11.134

3.1 The options.palm content:

crtscts
netmask 255.0.0.0
10.50.10.10:10.50.10.20
domain atras.itaparica
passive
local

4. On Linux execute (It's VERY IMPORTANT):

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

5. On Palm open net prefs and (from pop-down menu) choose View log
   (only to see the provided IPs)

6. On Palm start WebPro application

7. Surf on the net and ENJOY!!!

8. To stop everything execute ./fim.bluetooth.sh:

#!/bin/bash
hciconfig hci0 down
rmmod rfcomm
rmmod l2cap
rmmod hci_usb
rmmod bnep
rmmod sco
rmmod bluez
rmmod usb-uhci

killall -9 rfcomm
killall -9 hcid
killall -9 inicia.bluetooth.sh
