I paste here some informations. Those files are located in
/etc/dbus-1/system.d/ :
NetworkManager.conf :

The other nm-[vpnc-service|ppp-starter] are like the latest one.
According to the error reported by nm-applet when launching it through
nm-applet
in a shell :
** (nm-applet:13017): WARNING **: <WARN> nma_dbus_init(): could not acquire
its service. dbus_bus_acquire_service() says: 'Connection ":1.44" is not
allowed to own the service "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo" due to security
policies in the configuration file'
there's an error in the rights defined for "org.freedesktop.NetworkManagerInfo";
I'm going to try to change rules in NetworkManager.conf and nm-applet.conf,
allowing ALL in "default" section. Maybe it's unsecure, ugly and so on... but
if it works, my Boss will be really pleased.
The really strange thing is, I installed a laptop (dell latitude d620) 2 days
ago, under gutsy, but this one doesn't have this problem.
I can say it's NOT a problem only on my Boss' laptop, as a workstation do have
it too (but this one is upgraded to Hardy now).
I'm also going to read configurations on the old d620, maybe there will
be a hint in it....
I'll post results here when I have them.
Regards
C.
