I'm been a user of Arch Linux for a while and I was wondering is there anyway of making the programs that are included in the gnome-system-tools package to verify root status with gksudo instead of gksu because I have the root account disabled for security. I use "sudo" to manage my whole system.

System / Preferences / Privileged granting. Then change the Authentication mode.

Do you mean this? I already have that enabled.

That just changes how GNOME uses libgksu, so try launching gksu itself and telling it to use sudo (gnome-system-tools isn't very well integrated into GNOME).
Also, you probably want to use networkmanager rather than configure the network via gnome-system-tools, which is just a frontend to a few files you've already configured.

Apologies for misleading. I had assumed that because the "su" option asks for the root password and the "sudo" option asks for the user password they were using su and sudo respectively.
edit: spelling
