Thanks for this. I just happened to find this article while looking for something else related to s3-bash but I know this would have given me trouble!

Comment on cocoasudo: A graphical Cocoa based alternative to sudo by Jon Hermansen

I came here to tell you that this was an awesome tool, but I had a feature request (until I figured it out on my own). I was hoping this tool could provide a “-u” option much like sudo does, but after looking at the Apple docs, it looks like they only allow privilege escalation via this API.

Anyways, you can have cocoasudo call ’sudo -u user command’ and it will DROP root privileges and run as a different user than your current login, which is exactly what I needed.

Thought I might share, thanks for the awesome software!

I love your tool! It’s fantastic and is great exactly formy situation (Java app ported to mac). I’m wondering if you could also write a quick tool that lets you add items to the com.apple.loginitems.plist file? I think it’s accessible using Apple’s LSSharedFileListItemRef, but I’m not an OSX developer :S

For some reason, it won’t let me specify my own icon. It overlays the standard lock icon with an exec icon. OS X 10.6.3

The video I mentioned – pretty iPhone specific, and all iPhone developers will immediately find it, but in case someone is frustrated at reading the above and not having a link:

Update: after I set it up end-to-end, it is working. I didn’t have to do any further changes to the script, and I followed pretty much the instructions in the short iPhone FBConnect video. Moral of the story: FB isn’t really big on giving you ways to test individual components; you have to do big-bang development and then hope everything works at the end.
