Which is probably what you want to do anyway in case your daemon is supposed to be accessible system-wide. > This way it uses a new connection to the system bus instead of the > nonexistent user bus, but it doesn't work either with a new problem > when requesting the name: > > Failed to acquire service name: Permission denied Owning a name is something the D-Bus daemon has to explicitly allow your code to do, through an XML policy file. See /etc/dbus-1/system.d/* for examples, and the dbus-daemon(1) man page for details.
