Hi,
as you are on a shared host, i guess, you cannot change much about users and user groups on that host.

When apache runs as "nobody", then i guess, it's user group is "nobody", too.
I'm not a *nix pro, but i fear, you can't do much here: As your shell/ftp user and the apache user "nobody" probably do not belong to the same user group, you need to grant write access to everyone.
If you can, you should try to put your "webserver user" and your ftp or shell user into the same user group and grant write acccess to that group.

Now, the good news: When you use ez 3.4, you will probably not need to change files by FTP or Shell anymore, as you can edit and create .ini files with the ezPublish admin interface (=the webserver's user).
