I did not get a reply back to this so I'm re-posting it, is there additional
information I need to provide?

The old way I performed this was by using pand with the following<br>
options:<br>
PAND_OPTIONS=&quot; --secure --listen --master --role &nbsp;NAP<br>
--devup=/etc/bluetooth/pan/dev-up&quot;<br>
<br>
Moving forward I want to use dbus commands and configure the NAP the<br>
*right* way.<br>
<br>
Here is my current understanding from the wiki you can completely set<br>
up everything via dbus or you can configure the basic settings using<br>
.service files (/etc/bluetooth) and the network.conf file.<br>
<br>
Here is what I think I should do:<br>
1.) Set up a service file:<br>
[Bluetooth Service]<br>
Identifier=network<br>
Name=Network service<br>
Description=Bluetooth Personal Area Network service<br>
Autostart=true<br>
<br>
2.) It looks like the network.conf default setting are good for what I<br>
want to do.<br>
<br>
3.) Issue dbus commands to start NAP. &nbsp;This is were I&#39;m confused and<br>
NEED HELP, I&#39;m not sure what all needs to be done here to allow a PANU<br>
device to connect to my NAP device.<br>
Once I have the connection (bnepX) I know what to do, just set up a<br>
bridge (pan0) and set up any forwarding/NAT/firewall rules using<br>
standard iptables/masq commands against the pan0.<br>
<br>
I believe the example on the wiki<br>
(<a href="http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/NetworkConnections" target="_blank">http://wiki.bluez.org/wiki/HOWTO/NetworkConnections</a>) details how to<br>
have a PANU device connect to a pre-existing NAP but I do not believe<br>
it details how to set up the NAP which is really what I want to<br>
accomplish.<br>
