An example of a combined rcNG/OG script is in security/cyrus-sasl. Your
rcNG portion of the script may look like the following:
name="mydaemon"
rcvar=`set_rcvar`
mydaemon_user="testuser"
command="${prefix}/sbin/${name}"
pidfile="/var/run/${name}.pid"
load_rc_config $name
run_rc_command "$1"
by adding mydaemon_user to the rcNG portion of the script, we execute
${command}as that user. For more info on the variables available to
run_rc_command, look at it's entry in /etc/rc.subr.
