Bluetooth FTP Connection Issue with Obextool.exe

Hi All,
I am facing some problems using FTP over Bluetooth using OBEX in WinCE 5.0.
I am using USB Stack for my device and i added the PAN profilrsupport also.

I am able to receive files from a "XP" PC to my Win CE device successfully.
ie i am able to establish a connection from my CE device to XP PC.
Using XP's standarad feature of "send to Bluetooth device", i am able to
successfully send file from XP to CE device.

But i also need to try sending files from CE device to XP .For that i am
using the "Obextool.exe" which is a part of Public code in WInCE 5.0.
When i run this application, i am able to scan and find all the devices in
the vicinity.
But when i try to connect to the device, its says "connection failled".
I added FTP server support also. But connection always fails.

The code where the problem happens in Obextool.exe is as follows.
//now, using the object, connect up
hr = pObexDevice->Connect(0,0,pHeaderCollection);
this function fails.

Do anybody has an idea of whats going wrong?
Any suggestion regarding this would be most welcome
Warm Regards
Ajith

Well, are you doing "Receive file from the device"
on XP side (yet another standard XP feature) when
connecting/sending file from the device?

Hi,
Do i need to enable something in a host XP pc before trying to connect to
using Obextool.exe running on CE?
As of now, i am not doing anything in the XP side, but connection fails.
Do i need to enable the option before trying to connect?
Would you suggest me what exactly i should do?
Thanks and regards
Ajith
