Ok here is what's happening thus far.
I have account A on a domain name already on my server. It's being hosted under it as an addon domain name. So it's using a subdomain, sub folder, so on so forth.
I want to move this sub account to it's own account, account B.
I setup account B through WHM and ssh into the server as root.
I transfer all files and folders from sub account, to account B's public_html folder.
As I'm sure most of you have guessed by now, everything is owned by root now. So I need to get account B's files owned by account B so the account B owner can change and update their files.
I've tried "chown -R username:username *" which seems to work, but once you ftp into the account there is nothing there which in actuality there is...
What am I doing wrong?
