[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#601140: consolekit: Should not claim xrdp sessions are local

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Package: consolekit
Version: 0.4.1-4

Not quite sure if this is a bug in consolekit or xrdp, but the
combination do not work as it should.

I set up xrdp in Squeeze, and logged in via the RPD protocol using
rdesktop from a remote machine.  Then ran ck-list-sessions and can see
that the session for my logged in user is claimed to be local:

  Session5:
        unix-user = '500'
        realname = 'test'
        seat = 'Seat4'
        session-type = ''
        active = FALSE
        x11-display = ':10.0'
        x11-display-device = ''
        display-device = ''
        remote-host-name = ''
        is-local = TRUE
        on-since = '2010-10-23T18:06:32.254503Z'
        login-session-id = ''

I believe RPD logins should be considered non-local, to make sure
services only available for local users are inaccessible for users
logged in using RDP.

This was using xrdp version 0.5.0~20100303cvs-6.

The pam setup for xrdp is probably this one:

  root at tjener:~# cat /etc/pam.d/xrdp-sesman
  #%PAM-1.0
  @include common-auth
  @include common-account
  @include common-session
  @include common-password
  root at tjener:~#
