Permissions are set to restrict who can read/write to a file. What FTP program are you using?

If you are using WS_FTP, than right click on a file, and select "unix chmod".
there are three groups: owner, group, other; And three selections for each: read(r), write(w), execute(xr).

When each selection is checked under a specific group, the total is 7. (4 for read, 2 for write, 1 for execute)

So if you want to chmod the file to 775, than:
Under "Owner" you would check all three, under "Group" you would check all three, and under "Other" you would check Read and Execute.

You can also do it through telnet by logging in and typing:
"cd /path/to/cgi-bin"
than
chmod 775 file.cgi

Hope that helps,
