Q:

FTP Automatic Permission Change

I need to be able to ftp a file directly to a folder in ubuntu server 14.10 that will automatically change the permissions to 775. Is there a command or setting in the vsftpd config that will allow me to do this?

A:

Use the vsftpd option file_open_mode:

The permissions with which uploaded files are created. Umasks are
  applied on top of this value. You may wish to change to 0777 if you
  want uploaded files to be executable.
Default: 0666

See the vsftpd.conf man page.
