remember in keychain

Hi,

I'm a noob to scripting, but what i'm trying to do is automate the maintenance routines.

I have the script:

do shell script "sudo daily" with administrator privileges
display dialog "The daily, maintenance scripts have completed."


(and weekly & monthly), and I trigger them from Ical. They work fine, but I have to put in the admin password every time.

I don't want to hard-code my admin password, is there a way to get a check-box "add to keychain" or "remember in keychain", so the next time I enter the password will be the last?

Thanks,

Tom
