.dbus file - Coastie - 04-13-2017

Deja Dup found a .bus file in my home folder and can't back it up because it has root access only. It reads:

# This file allows processes on the machine with id 467cfa02c550474bb86de9fac8d7106a using
# display :0 to find the D-Bus session bus with the below address.
# If the DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS environment variable is set, it will
# be used rather than this file.
# See "man dbus-launch" for more details.
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-JIR6g5CC9X,guid=722050251adde564c4ed94de58ec0e7f
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID=11377
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_WINDOWID=27262977

What is it? Should I delete it or just tell Deja Dup to ignore it?  :-\

The dbus configuration is a per-host config with a unique machine-id for the system dbus-daemon and unique dbus sessions for users.  They’re generated when you first run a session.

You can tell Deja Dup to ignore it or you can take ownership of the folder:

sudo
Code:
chown -R YOUR_USERNAME:YOUR_USERNAME /home/YOUR_USERNAME/.dbus

Cheers!

I told Deja Dup to ignore it. Don't really understand "The dbus configuration is a per-host config with a unique machine-id for the system dbus-daemon and unique dbus sessions for users.  They’re generated when you first run a session."  :-[  Strange it just showed up because I have been using Deja Dup for years.  :o
