Sorry for top post, this mua sucks.
Look at rc.subr. it calls su to start the daemon. Look at the manual for rc.subr I think there are some variables you could add to the rc.d script to change the behavior.

Yes, I did run it.
My understaning is that the tor process doesn't move to the "tor"
login class when switching a user. As a result, I can't restart it
when I login as root. I have to set the login class with su -c like
this:
# su -c tor root /etc/rc.d/tor restart
I think that will just run the script /etc/rc.d/tor as class tor, not
actually start the daemon as class tor.
Daemon inherits the class from /etc/rc.d/tor, doesn't it?
I'm not a su expert, but perhaps try the following and see what happens.
su -c tor root /path/to/tor
Sure, starting tor manually like this will work.
