With the help of the following Stackoverflow answers here and here I was able to successfully connect to the system DBUS remotely over TCP/IP. And using D-FEET I'm able to verify the connection. enter image description here

As can be seen by the above screenshot, i'm able to access the remote bus, and i'm able to successfully call the org.freedesktop.hostname1 object and its interfaces.

But while attemtping to access the com.aldogroup.Calculator, I get the following exception thrown enter image description here

This AccessDenied also occurs when accessing other services such as the org.bluez (I haven't been able to find a pattern)

UPDATE

My system.conf file

<busconfig>                                                                     
        <listen>tcp:host=0.0.0.0,port=55557,family=ipv4</listen>                
        <listen>unix:tmpdir=/tmp</listen>                       

        <auth>ANONYMOUS</auth>                                  
        <allow_anonymous/>               
        <apparmor mode="disabled"/>
        <policy user="root">       
                <allow own="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
                <allow send_destination="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
                <allow send_interface="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>  
                <allow send_type="method_call"/>                    
        </policy>                                                   
</busconfig>

DBUS busctl output

I fixed it by creation a .conf file in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/

<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
 "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
 "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>
    <policy user="root">
        <allow own="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
        <allow send_destination="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
        <allow send_interface="com.aldogroup.Calculator.Divide"/>
        <allow send_interface="com.aldogroup.Calculator.Multiply"/>
    </policy>
    <policy at_console="true">
        <allow send_destination="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
    </policy>
    <policy context="default">
        <allow send_destination="com.aldogroup.Calculator"/>
    </policy>
</busconfig>

Not sure why the policies specified in system.conf didn't do the job.

The solution in the accepted answer didn't quite work for me. Instead, I used the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN" "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>
   <policy user="pi">
      <allow eavesdrop="true" />
      <allow eavesdrop="true" send_destination="*" />
      <allow own="com.example.calculator" />
   </policy>
</busconfig>

After this is done, run:

sudo systemctl restart dbus
