This isn't pretty. It makes you enter a password then gives you 20 seconds no matter what button you push.
set tmpfile to "/tmp/execme"
set process_name to "Keychain Scripting"
set dscript to "ps -Ac | egrep" & space & quoted form of process_name & space & "| awk '{print $1}'"
set Process_id to (do shell script dscript)
--do shell script "kill" & space & Process_id
set shell_kil_command to "kill" & space & Process_id
do shell script "pwd" with administrator privileges
set theShellScript to "sleep 20
sudo" & space & shell_kil_command
do shell script "echo " & quoted form of theShellScript & " > " & tmpfile
do shell script "chmod +x" & space & tmpfile
do shell script tmpfile & space & "> /dev/null 2>&1 &" with administrator privileges
get_keychain_info(k)
