I know that that was a little vague. These questions
are good for me to narrow this down. I am trying to
execute tools as root. Essentially I am currently
building an abstraction layer over some tools so I
need a way to abstract the authentication before
executing a series of tools.

If you can give me some help it would be much
appreciated.

Yes, then what you want is the article by Brian Hill on stepwise.

You can access it here

Thanks,

Yes. your question is too vague to answer for the
most part.

What are you trying to do?
Are you trying to access or create keychain items?
Are you trying to verify a user's authorization?
Are you trying to run a tool as root?

If you are trying to run a tool as root, see the
tutorial on
authorizing users and doing so on stepwise.com and
the sample code
included there.

The Security framework is a big framework with lots
of different
parts, and as such there is no way anyone here can
give the "right"
answer to your question.

Kind of hard to ask specifically for what I am
looking
for here but can someone outline for me the
progression of steps to use the security
framework?

I have been having difficulty in some part of the
process but I am not sure what part is failing, in
particular.

Any help? (sorry that this question is vague and
seems
to ask for a long answer)

Thanks in advance,
Jeff.
