Interesting, but I don't know. This may be a polkit setting. If you find out, I'd be interested.
I was sugested in the #systemd channel that this may be associated with dbus: 06:31:17 Mithrandir | sounds like the dbus config isn't restrictive enough, you should get something like: 06:31:20 Mithrandir | > systemctl reboot 06:31:22 Mithrandir | Failed to issue method call: Access denied
I'll keep you informed while I continue investigating this issue until I have enough info to file a bug.
That's not it. It's intended that you can reboot/halt as user, if nobody else is logged in.
Actually, I am seeing this too. More precisely, from console "systemctl reboot" works as a normal user. However, when X (and xfce4-session) is started via "startx -- vt1" I can no longer do that (with the same error message as Martin). In both cases "loginctl" shows an assigned seat0, and inside xfce "ck-list-session" shows an active session on /dev/tty1, so I can reboot/poweroff via ck/polkit/sysvcompat layer. I can't try gnome to check whether it is an issue with xfce4-session not being systemd-aware, because somehow gnome-shell segfaults on startup for me :( -- Leonid Isaev GnuPG key: 0x164B5A6D Fingerprint: C0DF 20D0 C075 C3F1 E1BE 775A A7AE F6CB 164B 5A6D
