[Bug 570692] Re: Ubuntu 10.04 Can't open RFCOMM device: Permission denied

[Martin]

The work around suggest by Tom does not work for me,

user at name:~$ sudo rfcomm connect 5
Can't find a config entry for rfcomm5

Also the workaround suggest for jaunty (adding a udev rule) where a
similar bug existed does not help.

A sudo on the regular rfcomm command solves the problem,

sudo rfcomm -i hci0 connect /dev/rfcomm5 00....
Connected /dev/rfcomm5 to 00... on channel 1

but this means giving root rigths to all programms connecting to rfcomm5
which I definitely do not want to do.

Isn't there any workaround to get a working connection accessible in
user space ?
