I'm trying to access the root user's default database from a
PreferencePane. I tried using AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges
with the system.privilege.admin right and just executing the /usr/
bin/defaults binary, but for some reason I wasn't accessing the
same defaults that I would see if I ran defaults as root. What is
the best way to do this? What is the right that I need to request
in order to access root's defaults database?
This may not be the best place for your questions...PreferencePanes
are a Cocoa technology so the right people may be on the cocoa-dev
list instead.
The team that maintains AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges hangs out
on the apple-cdsa list.
Good luck,
