When setting up accounts in Mac OS X, the Accounts pref panel has a checkbox
for user accounts labeled, "Allow user to administer this computer".
How can I programmatically determine if my application is being run for a
user who is allowed to administer the computer vs. one who isn't?


The Carbon way:

err = AuthorizationCreate(&user_rights, kAuthorizationEmptyEnvironment, user_flags, &user_authorizationRef);

See Authorization Services docs for more details ..
