<div>Hi, folks. I've written some custom DBus services, and I'd like to use PolicyKit to control who's allowed to send messages to them. I see that there's this notion of default behavior for "any", "active" sessions and "inactive" sessions, but I have a few questions about the semantics here:</div>
<div><br></div><div>1) What constitutes an "active" session? "inactive"?<br></div><div><br></div><div>2) what do the following acceptable values mean?</div><div>auth_self_one_shot</div><div>auth_self</div>
<div>auth_self_keep_session</div><div>auth_self_keep_always</div><div><br></div><div>auth_admin_one_shot</div><div>auth_admin</div><div>auth_admin_keep_session</div><div>auth_admin_keep_always</div><div><br></div><div>I looked at the reference manual online, and no explanation was really provided. Where can I go to figure these things out?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Chris Masone</div>
