I think what you are asking for is outside the remit of ftp.
As I understand it (and I may be wrong) ftp saves files according to the
umask (specified file permissions) defined in the ftp server’s
configuration. Its purpose is transfering files - something else has to
make the executable. I expect there is also a security justification
there somewhere too.
You can make dirs ftp.mkdir or delete dirs ftp.rmdir but there’s no
single command to do both. But presumably you can check for the
presence of a directory

I uploaded from windows m.e. and I used:
ftp = Net::FTP.new(‘www.4gigs.com’, user, pass, )
files = ftp.chdir(‘public_html’)
ftp.puttextfile(‘it.rb’, ‘it.rb’)
ftp.close
Is there some command like maybe?
ftp.chmod( ‘it.rb’, 755 )
or ftp.make_or_remove_a_directory?
