Er sorry I was confused :P

I am connecting to the normal dbus-daemon-1, forget what I was saying :P

Yes I guess this is the part I was wondering. What do I need to put in my 
<auth> section of the system.conf for it to use SASL PLAIN? Right now, all I 
have is <auth>EXTERNAL</auth>.Do I put <auth>SASL_PLAIN</auth> or
somesuch?
