Securing nagios

Currently the spec build it so that nagios writes its pid to a file in the 
/var/run directory.  This causes nagios to fail on some systems as the 
nagios user doesn't have rights to write to that directory.  The submitted 
patch fixes this by creating a directory /var/run/nagios and grants 
ownership of this directory to nagios.  It then instructs nagios to write 
the pid file to this directory.
