Hi Anders,

You need to open up the install tool and go to 'all configuration'.
There you search for 'createGroup'. You will find an option that
instructs apache to create all files it creates as a certain 'user'.

In your case you want that to be your ftp user.

Also you are interested in the options:
- fileCreateMask
- folderCreateMask

Kind regards,


Michiel Roos
