Some other systems don't configure pam_systemd for ssh, so check `loginctl` to see if systemd-logind was told about your login (that's what triggers the automatic start of user@.service). Also check if $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR exists (normally it should point at /run/user/$UID), and if $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/systemd/private exists (should be a Unix socket). > I found some websites talking about creating a session with dbus-launch > command, but that is packaged by dbus-x11, so it didn't make too much > sense for me as I am not using anything related to x11. > `systemd --user` does not use a session bus anyway, as it runs outside any sessions. It will try to start a "user bus" if the system's dbus is configured to support it (as in Debian's "dbus-user-session"). It will also listen on a private socket in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/systemd/, whether a user bus is available or not. (Neither the user bus nor XDG have anything to do with "x11 vs non-x11".) -- Mantas Mikulėnas <graw...@gmail.com>
