[Pythonmac-SIG] Authentication via python?

[Benjamin Schollnick]

Folks,

I¹m working on some time machine scripting...  In a gist, there is a
.Backup.log file that I want to access via readline & python....

>From the MOSX gui, it appears some of the files require root access (eg.
Authentication dialog pops up).  Now, I am using the applet maker to compile
the python to a GUI stub, so I can¹t SUDO the python script...  Is there
some method that I can use to authenticate via the python script internally?

I¹m in the middle of a google search on this, but I am having no luck at
refining my search phrase currently (Macintosh python authenticate)...
