Can't configure Bluetooth on 16.04 Server
I have been trying to follow multiple tutorials, but all of them either reference hidd or bluez-simple-agent.
I have installed bluez bluez-tools bluetooth, but when I run hidd or bluez-simple-agent I get command not found.
I have tried to:
sudo apt-get remove --purge bluez bluez-tools bluetooth && sudo apt-get install bluez bluez-tools bluetooth
But that yields the same results.
My end goal is to pair a bluetooth keyboard. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I was able to follow this AskUbuntu post using bluetoothctl. If you can't type in the bluetoothctl prompt, run it with sudo.
I also ran [bluetooth]# trust [keyboard MAC Address]
