Authorized Copy/Erase (NSFileManager)

Subject: Authorized Copy/Erase (NSFileManager)

So, I'm creating a copy/erase tool for an app, and I need to be able to authorize the user so I can copy and delete files that need Admin permissions. I have looked thoroughly through the Security.framework, but could not find anything. I do not want to do a shell script, so I would rather not use the authorized execute command. Is there a way to do this?

And if there is, what is the best way to only have the user type their password once (using the Security framework), and never have to again the next time the app launches?

Thanks
