I always found the BetterAuthorizationSample to be overly complicated at demonstrating those authentication and authorization concepts. I found the "BLAuthentication" Objective-C class, did modify it a bit and I use it to run a helper process for which I change the setuid to root only once when it's installed. Then, the helper runs as root each time it's needed. Do a Google search and you should find it.
