chmod on 690k files

I have a folder that contains about 690k files and I need to change their permissions. The challenge is, I have no telnet access and the GUI FTP manager via cpanel just simply fails. I tried doing it via command line ftp but that too, fails saying 'no such file or directory'.

My last resort is to do this via a CGI script executing it through the browser but wanted to check if anyone knows of a better way of doing this?
