Nope. I suggest filing an enhancement request against the Security
framework/Authorization API's.
I surfed around the developer section but didn't find a place for that.
Did you you mean the bug report section? (Couldn't get in there to have
a closer look - for some reason my ADC login wasn't accepted.)
Or, even better, is there a way to promote an NSTask to root
privileges?
Nope. If you want to do this you will need to make your application
setuid root, and then your users a) probably wouldn't be able to easily
install it or b) might consider your application a security risk.
Well, yes, to avoid that was the reason I used the framework... :-)
Thanks,
Sven
