Security Framework - Save authentication


  • Subject: Security Framework - Save authentication
  • From: Jerry Brace <email@hidden>

The application I am currently developing requires to prompt the user to authenticate to enable a command line tool to launch with administrative rights.
By following the article at Stepwise.com (http://www.stepwise.com/ Articles/Technical/2001-03-26.01.html) I am able to prompt the user and run the command line tool.


My question is - how can I save this information so that I do not need to prompt the user again?
The command line tool I am using is from the Apple Power Management DDK which allows the computer to wake from sleep at a particular time.
I know that there are many bad ways to store the user's info - but I'd like to know the right way to go about it. Basically I would only need to prompt the user a second time when their password has changed.


Many thanks to anyone who can help,
Cheers,
Jerry
