We run sec as a non-root user. However the rc.d script does not provide a way
to change the pid file. I can think of several ways to solve this:

    - Change pidfile to /var/run/sec/sec.pid
      Optionally chown /var/run/sec to sec_user

    - Optionally add sec_pidfile to rc.conf to override pidfile

If the maintainer could provide feedback on the preferred solution I'm happy to
create a patch for approval.
