Hi, I'm working on a networking related app, that at time requires elevated privileges to perform certain functions. I would like to prompt for the super user password, and then authenticate and perform my function, much like the SuSE setup tool Yast does, or when you are prompted for an administrator password when installing software on a Mac.
I’m not aware of the techniques used to elevate an apps privileges, so far I’m looking at Linux “capabilities” and libcap, but I’m not sure if I’m on the right track, and if it would be portable to say BSD. Many thanks Cheers. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Elevating-your-privileges-tp22721407p22721407.html Sent from the GNUstep - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
