Hmm, but in this case, the client seems to be completely refused access to
the bus – not just blocked by policy from sending some message. The system
bus normally allows any user to connect (I mean, I have no problems
accessing it from an LDAP account), so I'm not sure why the bus config
should matter at this point.
