I have no idea what was wrong but "my bug" happened independently on two laptops last week (before I reported it), with the same dbus-error message about denying to own the the service name when trying to start the service. >From what I read in the dbus-specification >(http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-daemon.1.html) it occured to me, that >when starting the service as root on the console both policy brackets apply >and the second deny overwrites the first allow stanza.

By the way, denial of ownership is enabled by default. /etc/dbus-1/system.conf: [..] <!-- Holes must be punched in service configuration files for name ownership and sending method calls --> <deny own="*"/> <deny send_type="method_call"/> [..] So the deny-tag should be redundant anyway.
