You are better off learning how UNIX permissions work. Then you can 
loosen the permissions yourself, upload the files, and put the 
permissions back how they were. That said, on my install, the wiki.d dir 
is drwxrwsr-x nobody:32483, which is fairly permissive (also, the group 
is a non-existant group, but I think that is a result of when I first 
installed it from the tarball, and I haven't had a need to fix it.)

My server is my own machine, so I don't always put a lot of effort into 
making the permissions correct, which I would do if it was shared.
