Process ownership

Hi,
        Does anyone know how I may be able to get a process to startup at
boot time and then have the owner of the process be another user? Basically,
I have 2 accounts that have processes which routinely ftp stuff using
an ever changing .netrc file. I want to get those processes to start
automatically at boot time but still use the .netrc files that are in the
user account's home directories. I may be thinking wrong here, but I figured
that if I can start those process at boot and change their ownership to
those two accounts, then maybe they will use their respective .netrc files.
        Any thoughts?

        Thanks in advance,
        Bill Antoniadis
