How do you change the file attributes once you FTP your
file to the remote server? For example: 755?

You will need FTP client software to access your FTP site for that

First, make sure the files have been uploaded correctly. Perl/CGI scripts
must be uploaded as ASCII (text) files - some FTP clients will upload these
as binaries unless you tell the program otherwise.

The CHMOD process may vary according to the FTP client you use.
In WS_FTP LE, in the remote site window, select all the files to be
processed.
Right click, and choose CHMOD (Unix) from the context menu.
In the popup window, ensure that
Owner is set to Read, Write, and Execute
Group and Other are both set to Read and Execute only.
Press OK.
The status window will indicate SITE chmod 755 filename
for each file selected.
