Don't know a lot about the FTP Server side of things, but did some googling and got some ideas.

You could try SITE CHMOD 777 filename.xml
Might have to use lowercase: site chmod

Are you sure it's a Unix system you are uploading to? Does SYST Return as Unix, or also give invalid command?

Could be the CHMOD command has been disabled for some reason. You'd have to contact the FTP site Admin and make sure they support using CHMOD.
