Ok, you're not explaining very well what you're seeing.

Given the config file above, what user are you connecting as ?
What user are you seeing the files created as ?

If you are connecting as user peter then the desired behaviour
is that files should be owned by root, as that's what you
said when you set the admin users parameter. Anyone else
connecting should get fixes owned by www_200a3i.
