This is reported against an old version of Ubuntu. Because of that we
won't fix this issue however if this behavior repeats on a modern
version please fill a bug report against it and we will take it from
there.

Title:
  can't connect to PAN NAP

Status in bluez package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: bluez

  In Ubuntu 8.10 the bluez handling of personal area networks is
  undocumented and not working.

  I have two boxes running 8.10 and bluez installed. There seems to
  exist no possibility to connect one to the other via a Bluetooth PAN
  connection.

  On Ubuntu 8.04 this could be done via running pand on one side in role
  NAP (network access point) and connecting from the other side with
  "pand -c <btaddr>".

  This does not work anymore even if package bluez-compat (containing
  pand) is installed.

  With bluez-compat not installed I can bring up the interface pan0 on
  each side via ifconfig. Of course packages send via this interface get
  lost because there exists no connection between those two interfaces
  and I don't know how to bring up one.

  How is this supposed to work now?

  When scanning for the other side via "hcitool scan" it is found
  correctly. Even pairing via the Gnome Buetooth Applet works fine.
  Scanning SDP of the remote side works fine, too! PAN services are
  discovered successfully on each side:
