So I changed it to:

<allow send_type="method_call"/>

Restarted dbus, but it's still rejected.

OK, so no rule rejected it and I have to allow it explicitly.

Supposing that dbus rejects this now:

Aug 15 14:56:25 laptok dbus-daemon: Rejected send message, 11 matched
rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.55" (uid=0 pid=4042
comm="/usr/sbin/pppd nodetach lock nodefaultroute user e")
interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager.PPP" member="SetState" error
name="(unset)" requested_reply=0
destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager" (uid=0 pid=2534
comm="/usr/sbin/NetworkManager --pid-file /var/run/Netwo"))


What rule should I place to allow it, not reject it?
