How to back up individual user accounts to CD?

riddle

Registered
How can I, with administrator privileges, most easily burn a CD backup of other users' accounts?

What I *want* to do is create a burn folder and drag folders out of /Users into it, click "Burn", be prompted for the admin password and voila. Instead the Finder tells me that it can't read the files and refuses to do the burn.

Is there really no way to use admin privileges with the GUI burning features of Mac OS X?

And if not, what's the simplest way to do it from the Terminal?
