Hi Thomas,

If I remember correctly*, there is a method of forcing the D-BUS server and
client to use TCP over the loopback interface for various purposes.

When I was interested in working with IPC systems, about a year ago, I
managed to build a reasonably large library of trace files that way
(although I can't locate any at the moment), and I would have been
interested in a D-BUS dissector for Wireshark.

* According to the manual page for the D-BUS Daemon , adding *
<listen>tcp:host=localhost,port=1234</listen>* to one of the D-BUS
configuration files, substituting *1234* in the example for your chosen port
number should enable you for handling traffic via TCP.

I hope that helps.

Tyson.
