Setting FtpFile Permissions

Hello,
   When I connect to an FTP server, I get access to a remote file 
through FtpFile class.
   I wanted to set POSIX file permissions on this file such as 
rw-r--r--.  I tried to use setPermission() of FtpFile.  But to my 
surprise, there is no change on the remote site.
   I reverted to FtpClient.sendSiteCommand().  But I am afraid this 
could be platform-dependent.
   Whats the right way of setting permissions in platform-independent way?
