add user to apache can 't restart httpd

add user to apache can 't restart httpd

Hi.. Our httpd process is started with root and the
owner of the process is apache.  As apache is without
shell /bin/nologin,  I added a normal user to the
apache group in /etc/group as below

apache:x:48:csim

But I still can't use the user account to restart
httpd process. Do you know why?

[csim@(protected) ~]$ /etc/init.d/httpd restart
rm: cannot remove `/var/run/httpd.pid': Permission
denied

Starting httpd:
touch: cannot touch `/var/lock/subsys/httpd':
Permission denied

P/s:I know about sudo function, just want to know the
reason why the user account can't restart httpd even
it is in apache user group
