Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)?
yes:
Troubleshooting instructions for akeeba kickstart
any other akeeba kickstart issue

Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes (all)
Joomla! version: 2.5.6
PHP version: 5.3.3 (yes I upgraded from the stock that comes with koloxo)
MySQL version: 5.0.95
Host: (koloxo)
Akeeba Backup version which took the backup: (3.5.2 pro)
Kickstart version used to extract the backup: (3.5.2)

Description of my issue:
Upon extraction using akeeba kickstart, the owner is not the FTP owner, but it is changed to apache, which only root can change ownership back to their correct ownership. this works fine on my other hosts that use cpanel, but I would like to use this as a backup solution, so I need to figure out what is causing kickstart to make apache the owner of the files when it does not do that on any other hosting that I have seen thus far.

Thanks,

what i was asking was if there was anything I could change on the server that you know that makes it preform this way to stop this behavior. I already know that I can use FTP layer, but it is soooo slllooowwww.

I have root access to the server so my ultimate question is "Do you know what causes this behavior that I can modify a setting to fix?"

Thanks,

I think I understand, I am sorry for the problem
I do not have suPHP installed on the server,

Thanks,
