Hi All,
I was trying to authenticate a user from a deamon running in my machine. And I
found systemd-login can be used.
I went through documentation for interface org.freedesktop.login1, but I am not
clear on how it can be used.
Lets assume that there is a deamon called xyz running in my device which has a
webserver component. And it receives a request to login from https side.
And once the deamon has username and password, I would like to invoke some dbus
calls to org.freedesktop.login1 to perform the authentication.
Assuming org.freedesktop.systemd1.Privileged("true"), I see that I can use
CreateSession and ReleaseSession from interface org.freedesktop.login1.Manager.
But I have some doubts:
* Is this recommended approach.
* I am not seeing an argument in CreateSession method that takes password,
what am I missing here?
Thanks in advance 😊
