[Bug 929848] [NEW] init script has hard coded chown

[Paul]

Public bug reported:

I changed the user the nagios runs under and could not get the services
to start; so after looking around I found that the init script was
chowning /var/run/nagios3 directory.

/etc/init.d/nagios3

start () {
  DIRECTORY=$(dirname $THEPIDFILE)
  [ ! -d $DIRECTORY ] && mkdir -p $DIRECTORY
  chown nagios:nagios $DIRECTORY


Change: 
/etc/init.d/nagios3 

start () {
  DIRECTORY=$(dirname $THEPIDFILE)
  [ ! -d $DIRECTORY ] && mkdir -p $DIRECTORY
  chown "$(get_config nagios_user)":"$(get_config nagios_group)" $DIRECTORY
