Dave,
if the fix pointed out by Mark doesn't work (it looks like it only affects
perms, not ownership anyway), try making the dirs set GID.
chmod -R g+s /www/sitename
Then fix group ownership
chgrp -R webgroup /www/sitename
All in one
for i in list of sites
do
chmod -R g+s /www/$i
chgrp -R webgroup /www/$i
done

I've heard of probs due to SMB, but don't know anything about that.

If all else fails, can you get Homesite to automagically kick a script
whenever an update is done? If so, do perms via the script :).
