i'm going to assume that you would like to make your freebsd machine act 
as a server, i.e. bluetooth access point. if this is the case then you 
have to run rfcomm_pppd(8) in _server_ mode, i.e. you need to add '-s' 
(lower case s) to the rfcomm_pppd(8) command like. the '-S' (upper case 
s) makes rfcomm_pppd(8) to register SP (Serial Port) service in _server_ 
mode.

i'm also going to assume that you are using gnubox application on your 
p900 phone to dial out. you need to use 2box direct mode. keep in mind 
that rfcomm_pppd(8) in server mode will not dial out. it will wait for 
the client to dial in. in other words you have to initiate connection 
from your phone.

also keep in mind that sdpd(8) has to be running, otherwise 
rfcomm_pppd(8) can not register services and will fail to run.

thanks,
