Exactly the same problem here. Fresh 8.04 Ubuntu install - fully updated as of today, 02 June. The only actions taken were:

1. Full update via Synaptic
2. Set static IP via Network Manager
3. Add machine to Active Directory domain using Likewise Open
4. Reboot

Attempting to unlock Network Manager (or Users) results in the error message and a full desktop lock - only crtl-alt-bkspc works.

Have tried reinstalling policykit - same problem.

Have checked /etc/hosts and the default did not have "machinename" in the 127.0.0.1 line. Added machine name and retested. Failure still occurred.
