NAME

obexftp - Mobile Equipment file transfer tool

SYNOPSIS

obexftp [OPTION] [COMMANDS]

DESCRIPTION

obexftp is used to access files on mobile equipment, i.e. cell phones. With obexftpd you can transfer files between any computers using IrDA, Bluetooth and TCP/IP.

This tool lets you access the ObexFTP library by the means of a command line interface. You might consider using the other means available. E.g. the ObexFS filesystem for Linux.

OPTIONS

The ordering of options is important. Every command will use the most recent device set. Every file without command switch will apply to the command given most recent. See EXAMPLES

TRANSPORT OPTIONS

-i, --irda

Connect using the IrDA protocol. This is the default.

-b device, --bluetooth device

Connect to this bluetooth device. If the device is not given the first device found will be used.

-B number, --channel number

Use this bluetooth channel when connecting. The channel will be discoverd automatically if this option is not used.

-d no/address, --hci no/address

Use the bluetooth device referenced by number or address as source device for the connection.

-u intf no, --usb intf no

Connect to this usb interface or list all available usb interfaces.

-t device, --tty device

Connect to this tty device.

-n host, --network host

Connect to this network host.

COMPATIBILITY OPTIONS

-U uuid, --uuid uuid

Select the UUID to connect with. Recognized values are currently "none" needed by some Nokia mobile devices, "FBS" (default) for the normal file browsing service, "IRMC" for IRMC synchronisation and "S45" when connecting to a Siemens Mobile phone via cable or "SHARP" for PCSOFTWARE UUID with Sharp devices.

-H, --noconn

Suppress connection IDs (i.e. send no connection header to the mobile).

-S, --nopath

Don't use "setpath" commands (i.e. send the whole path as filename to the mobile). Can be used together with --noconn and --uuid none to send an OBEX-PUSH.

SETTING THE FILE PATH

-c folder, --chdir folder

Set the mobiles current working directory.

-C folder, --mkdir folder

Set the mobiles current working directory. The folder will be created if it doesn't exist.

-l folder, --list folder

List a folder.

SENDING AND RETRIEVING FILES

-o path, --output path

Specify the target file name, overriding the implicit local name from --get or the implicit remote name from --put

-g source, --get source

Retrieve files from mobile.

-G source, --getdelete source

Retrieve files from mobile and delete them on the mobile

-p source, --put source

Send files to the mobile.

-k source, --delete source

Delete files from the mobile.

EXPERIMENTAL EXTRAS

-X, --capability

Retrieve the capability object from the mobile (if available).

-Y, --probe

Probe and report device characteristics

-x, --info

Retrieve misc infos from mobile. I.e. memory size and free memory. Siemens specific for now.

-m src dest, --move src dest

Move (rename) files on the mobile. Siemens specific for now.

VERSION INFORMATION AND HELP

-v, --verbose

Be verbose and give some additional infos.

-V, --version

Print version string and exit.

-h, --help, --usage

Print short usage instructions.

EXAMPLES

To get the directory listing from the first irda device

obexftp -i -l or just obexftp -l as IrDA is the default.

To get the file bar from directory foo from the first bluetooth device

obexftp -b -c foo -g bar

To send the file bar to directory foo with device on first serial port

obexftp -t /dev/ttyS0 -c foo -p bar

It is possible to use RfComm (serial port over bluetooth)

obexftp -t /dev/rfcomm0 -c foo -p bar

And also IrComm (serial port over IrDA)

obexftp -t /dev/ircomm0 -c foo -p bar

To send the file bar using plain OBEX PUSH

obexftp --bluetooth --nopath --noconn --uuid none --put bar
