I looked back through the mail list archives and found this same issue has come up 3 times, each with no response or resolution. So since the bluetooth guys over at Apple seem to not be very responsive about this topic, I went ahead and filed a bug, #3533558. Maybe that will get some progress started. -Ben on 1/17/04 12:50 AM, Ben Ralston at bralston@mac.com wrote:
Ok, I can understand the security concerns with such a utility. But why
still include a useless utility with the developer tools? Also, wouldn't it
make sense just to disable sniffing for encrypted packets?

From the WWDC talk on Bluetooth, the PacketDecoder was disabled for
security concerns.
Apple was supposed to release a SDK for Bluetooth which re enabled the
packeddecode, but hasn't done it yet. Hopefully some one else on this
list knows more.
You can use the packet decoding on a linux machine.. although I know
thats hardly an Ideal solution.

Every time I open PacketDecoder2 (v1.4) I get the following error:
IOServiceOpen()
Error e00002bd returned.
The application remains open at this point, but no packets are
captured.
I'm using a PB G4, latest developer tools, and 10.3.2 update. Normal
bluetooth operation is fine (ie. keyboard and mouse work).
