3) Setup sudoers

For 1) I've installed pc-connectivity-manager long time ago, I didn't realize it may be essential to the bluetooth PAN. I added it back in procedure.

For 2) notepad would introduce some ^M characters in the transfer.

It doesn't matter. I've attached a tarball which contain the script bluetooth-pan.sh. You can download the tarball, put it under /home/user/, run the following command to extract it:

Code:

tar xvf bluetooth-pan.tar

then cat /home/user/bluetooth-pan.sh, you should see the content.

For 3) I found that sudoers might not by default having all the privilege granted to user. That's good, as it's more secure. Therefore, you might need to add the following files bluetooth-pan.sudoers under the /etc/sudoers/ (as root)

Code:

user ALL = NOPASSWD: /home/user/bluetooth-pan.sh

and then update the sudoers as root:

Code:

update-sudoers

I've also attached this file in the tarball.

The above has been updated in the procedures.

Thank you for your suggestion. Please let me know when you've further query.
