Ever tried that??? I did. And as I didn't want a solution involving copying 
changing(!) security secrets across machines, I wanted anonymous access to 
dedicated dbus sessions.

Turns out that despite all config-file hackery this needs a custom patched dbus 
server to work. The patch is less then 10 lines but the mainline refuses to 
include it afaik. Which makes the whole anonymous authorization in dbus 
useless.

I decided to invent my own text-based network protocol. Is easier to forward 
to the next phd-student then teaching him how to handle custom patched 
versions...
