Get the PID of a service

Hi all,

    According to the D-Bus specification, it could get the UNIX uid of
the process connected to the server through the GetConnectionUnixUser
method by org.freedesktop.DBus . How about PID? Can I get the PID of a
connected service by using existing interface? Or it must be
implemented by a custom method?

   Because I am writing an watchdog to monitor few services connected
to DBus, I need the PID in order to kill non-responding service.

Thanks for any advise.
