Bluetooth


Greeting Linux Enthusiasts,

What do you think of making Bluetooth available to a linux workstation through the activation of BlueZ which is apparently shiped with the Linux 2.4 and 2.6 kernels? Will the computers be not too much vulnerable to attacks?

Thanks for your suggestion in advance.

I don't see why you shouldn't do it... It's no more vulnerable then if your on a LAN, caonnected to the internet. Just have it incrypted and you should be fine.
