using low ports when running vidalia on gentoo or allowing vidalia to modify configs on init.d configured tor server

Hi,

I'm running my tor server  through vidalia so I can more easily monitor
it's bandwidth utilisation and access that neat tor network browser/map
thing, the problem I'm having is that I was unable to get vidalia to do
configuration if I tried to make it connect to a server running via the
standard /etc/init.d script so I've ended up running it under my normal
login, which then makes it impossible for me to run it on low ports.

I presume the simplest solution is getting the config and logging
interfaces from vidalia talking to the tor user owned files, but I'm
buggered if I can figure out how to do it.

Any help would be appreciated.
