I've tried obex-data-server and obexd, but I couldn't get either one working. 
I asked on the list but there wasn't a reply. The one I use currently is one I 
found, made by someone, and patched a bit to compile here by myself. Credits 
are in the files, but I can't remember the author right now. It has both 
server and client. It is as it is, I can't say how functional or secure it is, 
but it meets my needs. You'll need openobex, glib, bluez, zlib, pcre and 
be able to compile stuff with it. I also use obexftp and obexfs.
