Radium pidfile

[Phillip G Deneault]

Ah, so I did figure that out late last night, but what I noticed is that 
in the CentOS version I'm running, the pid file value is the value of 
radium - 2.  Is this due to some double fork when its run as a daemon?

Maybe this is a CentOS particularity, has anyone else noticed this?
