File permissions - windows to unix

Hi,
I am uploading a file (both with a script and manually in winscp) from a windows server to a unix server.

No matter what options I choose in Preferences/Transfer, I always get the file transferred as rw-r--r--

I can manually change permission however to eg rwxr-xr-x

If I manually change permissions, the upload the same file again and overwrite, then the changed permissions stay. If I delete the file then upload, it goes back to rw-r--r--

Any ideas how I can force permissions automatically or why it isn't working?

Am using 4.2.2 build 480

many thanks
Rob

Follow up - I have discovered the permission= option inthe script, but it doesn't seem to work:

Synchronize remote -mirror -delete -criteria=size -permissions=755

This does the synchronize but permission of the files are still rw-r-r ie 644

Any ideas what I am doing incorrectly?

(Having searched for similar problems I think this issue should be moved to the scripting forum please)
thanks

Please post a full log file showing the problem.

After the transfer the directory looks like this:
<invalid hyperlink removed by admin>
sorry it didn't upload well but you can see the permissions are rw-r--r-- on the two files uploaded.

Here is the batch file that initiates the transfer:

winscp.exe /console /script=ftp.txt /log=c:\log.txt

and here is ftp.txt:
option batch on
option confirm off
open test_ftp
Synchronize remote -mirror -permissions=777 -delete -criteria=size
exit

Many thanks for any help you can offer

Follow Up:
Using the parameters above I uploaded to a folder with some existing files. The ones that were already there were updated, and kept their rwxrwxrwx permissions. The brand new files still got rw-r--r--

Can you help please?
thanks

I wasn't aware that you use FTP protocol. With FTP the option is not supported for put command. I have updated documentation to reflect that. You can use chmod command though.
