	In Unix the ownership of the file matters, not its location.
Look at the uploads folder using "ll" (el el) and it will show the
ownership of its contents.

"domain") has a quota?

	If you program the site see if you can have Perl/PHP/whatever
change ownership after the upload.  Or else, run a cron job each night
something like:

chown -R user:group /home/user/www/uploads

That will set all files in that folder to the specified user:group.
