I could be missing something, but it sounds like your problem comes from the UNIX side of the server. 'administrator' would have to be a UNIX user with permission to rwx those directories. e.g. you could create a new group 'administrator,' make all the home folders owned by <username>and 'administrator' group with 770 permissions. Make administrator a member of administrator group (add to /etc/group) and he should be able to rwx. I think?
