Bad group on cmd pipe after restart.

Hi all,

I've got nagios 3.0b6 running on Debian/etch with Debian's default Apache.

Apache runs as www-data:www-data.
Nagios runs as nagios:www-data, set this way via nagios.cfg's nagios_group 
command.

In /etc/passwd, nagios has the default group of nagios.  (Confusing, I 
know, but I'm trying not to stray too far away from the Debian norm.)

When I restart nagios, the command pipe ends up with the group nagios, not 
www-data, as I specified in the config.  I'm confident in saying that it's 
nagios that does this, not the init script.  Is this by design or an 
oversight?  If by design, what have I overlooked or not understood?

Thanks!
Kevin
