becoming root...

["B.Hakvoort" <bart hakvoort be>]

Hi people,

What is the best way to let a user become root in a graphical way? I'd
like to present the user with a password entry and after entering the
correct rootpassword the user gets rootpriviledges.

Is there a way to realize this without adding an extra dependancy to my
application?

thanks in advance,

Bart
