Or that > in the former cases my configuration is not properly set? If you omit any I think all non-anonymous mechanisms are used by default, not sure. That would include DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1. For the user that launched the bus, if you connect to localhost, DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 should work because both client and server can read the cookie file from the user's home directory. However, DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 won't work between machines unless they share home directories via NFS or whatever.
