The solution - The sysadmin changed my FTP user to be in the group I needed on that host and there is an FTP SITE Service in GIS that allows me to pass a site command as follows
<operation name="FTP Client SITE Service"> <participant name="FTPClientSite"/> <output message="FTPClientSiteServiceTypeInputMessage"> <assign to="." from="*"></assign> <assign to="SiteCommand">UMASK 000</assign> <assign to="SessionToken" from="//TOKEN/text()"></assign> <assign to="ResponseTimeout">30</assign> </output> <input message="inmsg"> <assign to="." from="*"></assign> </input> </operation> works like a charm. Two more legacy scripts will be retired. Yay!
