Two suggestions:
(1) Take out the "tell Finder" part...you aren't doing anything
specific to Finder. -- In fact, maybe that's the entire problem. I
don't know why (so I'm not saying this is a bug...there may be a good
reason), but experiment shows you can't "do shell script ... with
administrator privileges" inside of a "tell Finder":
tell application "Finder" to do shell script "ls" with administrator
privileges
(2) If it still fails, then (just for debugging), take out the
"try ... on error" stuff. Then, with the "do shell script" split up
into separate steps, you can see exactly which one is failing.
Cheers,

Nope. The error returned (I only cought the error message, not the
number) was as described before “Finder got an error: a priviledge
violation occurred”
Same user (me). But I don’t quite see what that would have to do
with it (nothing in the script refers to me (path, etc.) , apart
from the name and psswd, which where mine)…
