Best way to authenticate ?..

Hi,

First, like this seems to be usual, a little presentation.

I'm a Mac-User for a long time. A rhapsody/macOS X user for a long time too, but more as an system administrator than as a developer. I'm a redactor on the french WebSite on MacOS X (<http://www.mosx.net/>).
I'm currently developing a security application under MacOS 9, and, for pleasure, I'm starting doing some stuff with Cocoa...

I have too questions...
The first is not really cocoa-based, but I can't find the answer anywhere, and maybe someone here knows... I can't find a way to change the screen background color when loginwindow is launched... In Raphsody/MacOS X Server, this was only a defaults (LoginBackgroundColor) to change, but this way is broken in MacOS X... :-/

The second is more cocoa-based... I can't find a doc on the "good-way" to authenticate as a system administrator... Like sudo... As I need root privileges for a script that I will launch, is the better way is to launch the script with a sudo ? Is there a better way ?

Thanks.
