c2fc5a14 (kx 2023-12-22 01:04:48 +0300  7) This is the replacement of *systemd* service that control the **org.freedesktop.timedate1**
97fc2643 (kx 2023-12-22 01:08:44 +0300  8) *D-Bus interface* for GNU Linux distributions which does not have a *systemd*.

c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 12) **TimeDate** Daemon supports interactive parameter which can be used to control
c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 13) whether *PolKit* should interactively ask the user for authentication credentials
c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 14) if required. But also, if interactive way is not applicable, users permissions can
c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 15) be set by *PolKit* rules in the */usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/org.freedesktop.timedate1.rules*
c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 16) file. For example, a system administrator can add Desktop-users into **wheel** group
c5f7eedd (kx 2023-12-23 14:15:03 +0300 17) to give them rights to access the **org.freedesktop.timedate1** *D-Bus interface*.
