be done ?

You can't access the System Preferences window from your application; it's a separate application. You have to write a separate Preference Pane that System Preferences will run and display for you, and that will communicate with your application or server through some interface.

What is your application, and why do you think its preferences need to be in System Preferences? Usually application preferences are handled entirely within the application.
