I just wanted to add that this affects remote X-logins as well. When I am logged in through GDM from a different computer the unlock button in the users administration GUI is also grayed out.
Here are some data:
Ubuntu Hardy Heron
--installed from server 64
--apt installed ubuntu-desktop
Other note:
Access to local devices on the server such as a scanner exhibit similar behavior. Users can use the scanner if directly logged in to the server. However, from their remote x-sessions, Xsane can not detect the scanner. This is true even if implicit policy kit access to the scanner is already anyone "yes", console "yes", and active console "yes". I will post the same info in another bug report.
