Hi, I saw what happen since 2 days (bugs, patch etc..) Do you plan to update the binaries and dev packages here ? <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/windbus/files/">http://sourceforge.net/projects/windbus/files/</a> because this url is reported here: <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus">http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus</a> Sincerely Julien <div class="gmail_quote">2009/11/20 Ralf Habacker <<a href="mailto:ralf.habacker@freenet.de">ralf.habacker@freenet.de</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Ralf Habacker schrieb:<div><div></div><div class="h5"> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Julien Isorce schrieb: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Hi, Thx for the reply. I tried what you suggested: 2 cases, the first works, the second (the one I want) does not work: First case: --------------------------------- I run dbus-daemon --system in command line so the user is Administrator. In other cmd, I run dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest="org.freedesktop.DBus" /org/freedesktop /DBus/Introspectable org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect I got a reply and it's ok. I attached the log of the server to this mail: dbus-daemon_administrator_classic.log --------------------------------- Second case: --------------------------------- </blockquote> I assume in this case you are using DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 auth <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> I run : cygrunsrv -I dbus-daemon -i --path /cygdrive/c/dbus/dbus-exe/bin/dbus-daemon.exe --chdir /cygdrive/c/dbus/dbus-exe --args --system --env DBUS_VERBOSE=1 --env DBUS_TEST_HOMEDIR=C:\dbus\dbus-exe then: cygrunsrv -S dbus-daemon I can then see the dbus-daemon.exe process in task manager and the user name is SYSTEM In other cmd, I run dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest="org.freedesktop.DBus" /org/freedesktop /DBus/Introspectable org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable.Introspect The error from the client is: dbus-send.log attached to this mail </blockquote> the second log contains the following entry: 272: Client authorized as SID 'S-1-5-18' but our SID is 'S-1-5-18', disconnecting This message coms from dbus/dbus-transport.c::auth_via_default_rules (for the complete code see <a href="http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/tree/dbus/dbus-transport.c" target="_blank">http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/tree/dbus/dbus-transport.c</a>) The default auth rules are [1]: /* By default, connection is allowed if the client is 1) root or 2) * has the same UID as us or 3) anonymous is allowed. */ if (transport->allow_anonymous || _dbus_credentials_get_unix_uid (auth_identity) == 0 || _dbus_credentials_same_user (our_identity, auth_identity)) { Because none of the condition is true DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 auth fails (see the code snippet below) else { if (_dbus_credentials_include(our_identity,DBUS_CREDENTIAL_WINDOWS_SID)) _dbus_verbose ("Client authorized as SID '%s'" " but our SID is '%s', disconnecting\n", _dbus_credentials_get_windows_sid(our_identity), _dbus_credentials_get_windows_sid(our_identity)); else _dbus_transport_disconnect (transport); allow = FALSE; BTW: The code shows also a bug - for the client the server sid is also printed. I found this bug in all available dbus implementations and should be fixed -> patch will follow If you have the dbus source you may comment out the following line from [1] _dbus_credentials_same_user (our_identity, auth_identity)) </blockquote></div></div> Sorry, I was wrong with this patch it is required to not comment out the above mentioned line, instead the following lines should be used (both our_identity)<div class="im"> _dbus_credentials_same_user (our_identity, </div> our_identity)) Regards Ralf </blockquote></div>
