Thanks Alban Créquy for sharing that with us.  The Linux machine successfully responds to 'Hello' messages coming from the Windows 2008 server machine with a "Welcome".  The problem is that the Windows machine fails to respond with a "Welcome" message when responding to the Linux machine's "Hello".  "dbus_connection_send(..)" does get called for the "Welcome" message but it seems not to get sent.

In bus_driver_handle_hello () which handles the hello message  there is 
the following code

   if (bus_connection_is_active (connection))
     {
       /* We already handled an Hello message for this connection. */
       dbus_set_error (error, DBUS_ERROR_FAILED,
                       "Already handled an Hello message");
       return FALSE;
     }


calling "Hello" on windows command line reports this error:

 >qdbus  org.freedesktop.DBus /  org.freedesktop.DBus.Hello
Error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed
Already handled an Hello message

which looks as expected after the connection is active.
