sed can't do edit-in-place, you'd better use perl with -i -p -e flags
to change a file :
perl -p -i -e 's/<USERNAME>/joe.somebody/' file
to change a bunch of files :
find /your/path -name 'pattern' -exec perl -p -i -e
's/<USERNAME>/joe.somebody/' {} \;

Bien sûr que je suis perfectionniste !
Mais ne pourrais-je pas l'être mieux ?
