First verify the locations of owned files for the USER by using the 'find'
command and the path for the directory of the virtual domain. 
type: find /home/sites/www.DOMAINNAME.COM/web/ -user USERNAME
   This should list all of the USER owned files in this web directory and
subdirectories.
OR
type: find / -user USERNAME
   This should list all of the USER owned files on the Raq550.

Change ownership with the 'chown' command.  (NOTE: Be sure that you are in a
virtual site directory and not in a higher level like root.) In a directory
type: chown nobody *
   This will change all files to be owned by 'nobody'
OR
type: chown -R nobody *
   This will change all files and subdirectories to be owned by 'nobody'
(BE CAREFUL HERE)

These are just a few examples.  You can get more information on these two
commands by using 'man find' and 'man chown' from the command line on your
raq550.

I hope that this helps.
