This gives:

root at anferny root # dbus-send --type=method_call --system --print-reply
--dest='org.freedesktop.DBus' /org/freedesktop/DBus
org.freedesktop.DBus.ServiceExists
string:'org.freedesktop.ExampleService' method return;
sender=org.freedesktop.DBus int32:0
root at anferny root #

I take it that worked? and that the int32:0 returned means that
org.freedesktop.ServiceExists is false? and so doesn't exist. I would
assume a service that exists would give a 1?

Thanks I guess that means that dbus is working. I don't see anything in
dbus monitor though, that's running in another vt (hence the use of
--system).

Thanks.
