Ok, First I didnt get what you said earlier. Your program works fine. It's how it should be. The files you create on your server (where the SFTPD daemon is) must own by someone in that local machine. When you upload files to a FTP (or SFTP) server, the files are owned by the user that you authenticated to the server at the beginning or the owner of the daemon process. AFAIK you cant create file not belonging to any local (i mean the machine where the files are stored) user, but I'm not so sure how it'll work in an active directory environment.
