users need to chmod on newly ftp'd files
Is there a way to specify 774 permissions for a file uploaded to an app server via ftp without the users logging in and doing a chmod on the file they just put? I understand they were doing this with an old shared account, and it was working. When they started using their own accounts it stopped working. I checked the folder directly above and it has 774 permissions.

You can set either the umask on the server side or use the ftp command "site" to set the mask or chmod. When connected to your ftp client you can use "site help" to see what's supported. Not sure if you can set the execute bit though.
