It's a shame it's not documented though. Try the folowing README from what will show up if you will type 'rpm -qd ConsoleKit': ----------------------- What is ConsoleKit? =================== ConsoleKit is a framework for defining and tracking users, login sessions, and seats. What is a seat? =============== A seat is a collection of sessions and a set of hardware (usually at least a keyboard and mouse). Only one session may be active on a seat at a time. What is a session? ================== A session is a collection of all processes that originate from a single common ancestor and retain knowledge of a secret. As an implementation detail, this secret may be stored in the process environment by the login manager under the name XDG_SESSION_COOKIE. More Information ================ http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/ConsoleKit Discussion takes place on the HAL list. http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/hal ----------------------- It is true that I am not a big fan on a documentation "on web only" but if you will look it is rather ample if you can make head or tail from it. Checking what you have in /etc/security/ it also may be a good idea.
