I don't know if this is the best way to do this, but it is working for 
us:

- (IBAction)openProxiesSystemPrefs: (id)sender {
   NSString* appleScriptString =
       @"tell application \"System Preferences\" \n\
           activate \n\
           reveal anchor \"Proxies\" of pane \"com.apple.preference.network\" 
\n\
           end tell";
   NSAppleScript *theScript = [[NSAppleScript alloc] 
initWithSource:appleScriptString];
   [theScript executeAndReturnError:nil];
}
