No problem, if you run monit as root you can still start programs as
another user. Simply use the 'as uid and gid' sub-statements to
start, stop and exec. For example
check process tomcat with pidfile /var/run/tomcat.pid
start program = "/etc/init.d/tomcat start"
as uid nobody and gid nobody
stop program
= "/etc/init.d/tomcat stop"
# You can also use id numbers instead and write:
as uid 99 and with gid 99
if failed port 8080 then alert
