How to set file permissions for root in OS X / Terminal?

I am having problems with Apache working with my virtual hosts and I narrowed it down to the point of adding manually created virtual hosts (compared to others created using the python script). When I run:

  ls -l

I get this:

  -rw-r - r-- 1 root wheel 772 May 10 17:53 host1.com
 -rw-r - r-- 1 root wheel 766 May 10 17:53 host2.com
 -rw-r--r--@ 1 myname wheel 914 Mar 28 14:24 host3.com
 -rw-r - r-- 1 root wheel 3897 May 10 17:53 host4.com
 -rw-r - r-- 1 root wheel 5240 May 10 17:53 host5.com
 -rw-r - r-- 1 root wheel 4037 May 10 17:53 host6.com

I'm not sure what “@” means, but this manually created file has a username instead of the root owner. When I look at the file information in OS X (Finder), I see that permissions for most files show that the "system" has read and write access, but my manually created vh file shows what I have (my username) There is read and write access.

Can someone tell me how to set permissions for the "system" or "root" in the terminal? I have superuser access.

@ indicates that extended attributes exist. You can use the xattr command to look at them
You can set the owner using chown

You can change the ownership of the file in the terminal using

sudo chown owner:group filepath

Or in your case

 sudo chown root:wheel filepath

Alternatively, you can change file permissions using chmod
