Hi Todd,

If you already installed your tool once and didn't change the kind of rights that it is using, then it is most likely in the /etc/ authorization file.

If you remove your rights from there, re-installing your helper will recreate the rights with the new value.

In Apple's BetterAuthorizationSample application pressing the "LowNumberedPorts" button brings up a window to authorize yourself. It includes the following text to explain why you are authorizing yourself:

"You must be authorized to open low-numbered TCP ports. Type your password to allow BetterAuthorizationSample SampleApp to make changes"

The problem is I cannot find where this prompt comes from.

There is the line in the file SampleAuthorizationPrompts.strings
"LowNumberedPortsPrompt" = "You must be authorized to open low- numbered TCP ports."


But before even the first build I completely changed the right side to
"LowNumberedPortsPrompt" = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog";


It has no effect on what is displayed in the authorization window.

After the change I have done a find for the phrase that is displayed, and it isn't in any of the code in the directory as far as I can tell. *Where* is the text being displayed coming from? Please, any help would be appreciated.

Todd
