| If you would like to see if the password is successful, then a slight alteration to run the script in Terminal will help:
tell application "Keychain Scripting" set myKey to "Your Administrator Keychain" tell keychain 1 set chosenKey to the first key whose name is myKey as string set adminpwd to the password of chosenKey as string end tell end tell set myScript to "echo " & adminpwd & " | sudo periodic monthly" tell application "Terminal" activate delay 0.5 do script myScript end tell

I think that unless you can check the std err in the shell call, you won't be able to detect "bad passwords", so this may be failing silently at the shell call. I'm not sure of this and would welcome correction from anyone with better info.
