<title>OBEX Push Server: Receive files</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Most Bluetooth-enabled cell phones or PDAs will let you send
|
|
files from the mobile to your computer. While it might be more
|
|
comfortable to use the <link linkend="components.tdeio_obex">OBEX FTP tdeioslave</link>
|
|
to pull the files from your phone to your computer, not all devices
|
|
support this. OBEX Object push on the other hand is supported by most
|
|
Bluetooth devices.

<title>Using the OBEX Push server</title>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The OBEX Push server is managed by kbluetoothd and will be automatically
|
|
started if it is enabled and someone tries to send you some files.
|
|
Please see the documentation of kbluetoothd for how to
|
|
<link linkend="components.kbluetoothd.serviceconfig">enable or disable
|
|
services</link> (The OBEX Push server is listed as <command>kbtobexsrv</command>).
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
When you send a file from your mobile to your computer, the kbluetoothd
|
|
tray icon will turn blue and shows a small popup. By default (depending
|
|
on your <link linkend="components.kbluetoothd.confirmation">
|
|
settings for incoming connections</link>) you will have to accept the
|
|
connection first, then the main OBEX Push window should pop up
|
|
and start receiving the files.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Incoming files are saved to <filename>/tmp</filename> and will be deleted
|
|
after you closed the OBEX Push server. To save to files, you have two options:
|
|
</para>
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Click <guibutton>OK</guibutton> to save all received files to
|
|
a predefined location.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Drag one or several files to some other location. This is especially useful
|
|
if you want to send files by email, since you can drag the files
|
|
directly into kmail without saving them to temporary location first.
