As far as having Ubuntu script behave, you may try something in the line of:
DAEMON_OPTS="-a -c -w ${LOGFILE} -D -P $PIDFILE"
TRIX="-F %t %h \"%r\" %s %b \"%{Referer}i\" \"%{User-agent}i\"
%{ncsa-start}i %{ncsa-end}o"

start_varnishncsa() {
.........
       --chuid $USER --exec ${DAEMON} -- ${DAEMON_OPTS} "${TRIX}" \:



Best,
