If you create a login class in /etc/login.conf and set the priority
capability, then assign a user to that class in /etc/master.passwd (the
class field is the 5th one, it's usually empty), then their priority
(aka niceness) should get set then they log in. Remember to use the
'vipw' command to edit the passwd file, and to run 'cap_mkdb
/etc/login.conf' to rebuild login.conf.db.
