Specifying file permissions with SSHFtp

Question

I want to upload files with a user that is in the same user group as the receiving applications user (say ftpuser and applicationuser).

When I upload the file it obviously is owned by the ftpuser. No problems here. the bad thing is that the permissions is 755 (rwxr-xr-x) and I would like to have other permissions (namely rw-rw-r-- or possibly rwxrwxr-x). The reason for this of course being that I want to give permission for the users in the same user group to update and delete the file (in this case the applicationuser)

How can I do this?

We don't actually offer that functionality, but will very soon, in the next release.

We can email you a beta in a couple of days if you want to try it out - send us an email at support at enterprisedt dot com.
