Still can't get auth to work correctly.

Okay. Below is the code I am trying to use but it does not work. I am trying to just use ditto to do the copy since it will preserve the resource fork.
This code does not work and I do not have the knowledge to figure out why.
When I run it nothing is copied, ditto never appears to launch, as I watch it from the activity monitor. And I get an OSStatus return from the run authorized command of -600031
I'm cannot remember how to read a pipe between ditto and the authexecute command so that I can get an idea of might might be happening but anyway, with any luck, some one here can help with figure out the problem. Sorry about the messy code. Part of this is just C&P from cageFighter something that the writer of it suggested I look at for some guidance. The authorization seems to work but again I don't know enough about it to even make that determination.
