Hi Milan, I have since discovered this is a very strange issue with the version of OpenDJ I am running for my directory server, possibly in conjunction with the OpenIndiana host it's running on. I have set up a separate copy of OpenDJ of the same version but running on an Ubuntu host, and with identical settings in my test Ubuntu client except to alter /etc/ldap.conf to point to the second LDAP server, Policykit for LDAP users consistently runs successfully on login.
I wouldn't know what the heck is going on here, but I'll follow up with the OpenDJ folks for a start. Thanks for your help.
