[Pkg-netatalk-devel] Bug#1040065: afpd: systemd-logind ReleaseSession rejected by dbus-daemon

[Richard van den Berg]

Package: netatalk
Version: 3.1.12~ds-8
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

I am using netatalk for time machine backups. After every session I see this
line in /var/log/auth.log

2023-07-01T22:31:47.223949+02:00 my-server dbus-daemon[1538889]: [system] Rejected send message, 2 matched rules; type="method_call", sender=":1.153636" (uid=145 pid=2690475 comm="/usr/sbin/afpd -d -F /etc/netatalk/afp.conf") interface="org.freedesktop.login1.Manager" member="ReleaseSession" error name="(unset)" requested_reply="0" destination="org.freedesktop.login1" (uid=0 pid=1538900 comm="/lib/systemd/systemd-logind")

Today I finally found the solution at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netatalk/+bug/1538004

It is simple really, in /etc/pam.d/netatalk replace this line:

@include common-session

with this line:

@include common-session-noninteractive
