Q's concerning non-suid root daemon pid,log files

[Cameron Lerch <opcode_(_at_)_skylab_(_dot_)_saturn5_(_dot_)_yi_(_dot_)_org>]

Couple questions.. where should I put a .pid file if a daemon is being run
non-suid root? in a /usr/local/lib?share?/daemon type of directory? or should
a directory in /var/run be created that it has the ability to write to? same
with log files.. where should those be places? (/usr/local/.. or /var/log ?)

Also, is it ok to create files in /etc/ that are not owned by root.wheel? if
a file is sensitive, but also requires that a non-privileged program can
access it?

Thanks,
