Without root access you don't have permission to create users, which you
already know because your in Unix. I don't know Sheildhost but would I be
right in thinking (from your post) that you are expecting it to have some
means to create 'sub-users' for hosting purposes?
This could only really be a controlled access system rather than a real
owner:group at system level. More of a login system to your users. But in
the end the files will still be owned by yourself.
