I still haven't found a good solution to this. I'm even more confused because it *used* to work.
Not sure what to do. I have a work around, I think, but it is a fairly manual process of copying the files off the server and then putting them back after I *own* them.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm trying to avoid world write permissions and I can't use chown/chgrp because my user is not the same as the web server user.
ciao!
