Do you have root access?

If so you can use chown to change the ownership the file to the one you need (such as your ftp user).

If you don't, you might want to consider using an ftp client written in PHP to create directories/files for you, with your ftp user. This way you can then access it via ftp yourself.

Thanks for the links i will try with ftp class files.
