    The pid file should be /var/run/xllmnrd.pid by convention but it may require root privileges. So we might have to use /var/run/xllmnrd/xllmnrd.pid instead in the hope that we could write it.

    My current plan is to add a new option such as -p PID-FILE to specify the file name on the command line but to keep it with no default value. As xllmnrd runs as any user, making a pid file by default could be problematic. Any comments?
