This is a basic unix question, but I dont know the normal way this is
done.  After bootup I want to start a series of network daemons.  
I'd like to start them from rc.local, but I don't want this stuff running
as root.

What is the standard BSD (if there is one) way to do this sort of thing?
I thought about using inetd, but this software was not designed for
that kind of use.  It may work - I'm trying it now.

Thanks,
Derek
