In our schools every user's primary group is either "students" or "teachers",
so I was able to fix this by adding the following
to /etc/dbus-1/system.d/hal.conf
<policy group="teachers">
<allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume"/>
<allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.Crypto"/>
</policy>
<policy group="students">
<allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume"/>
<allow send_interface="org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume.Crypto"/>
</policy>
This will work with the NIS group size limitations.
I did not have time to figure out how to use "pam_console" or "at_console" or
study all of the dbus docs.
