Jeff,

you said:
A slightly more complicated approach that works with FTP is to set the
ownership of all files in a certain directory, so that no matter who
you login as, any files will be assigned that ownership.  I don't know
if SFTP/scp have this capability.

This is what I want to do.  I can open files on a remote server
through gedit and it uses ssh/sftp.  I save the file and it saves it
on the remote server.  I don't manually scp or sftp the file to the
remote server.  Is there a setting on the client or server side that
needs to change?  I am willing to change config files for ssh if need
be.

You'll need to upload them to the server as that user.  Assuming you're
using SFTP or scp or (yuck) FTP, if you login as the Apache user, the
files you create will be owned by that user.

ownership of all files in a certain directory, so that no matter who

And of course the last resort is to use 'chown' to update them after
they've been uploaded.  You may need to be logged in as root to do
that, however.

HTH,
Jeff
