1. First you will need to install Cyberduck if it is not installed.
2. Connect to your network homedirectory using USITs norwegian guide http://www.uio.no/tjenester/it/nett/utenfra/hjemmeomrade/mac/ (but it is really as simple as connecting with SFT protocol against 'linux.ifi.uio.no' and authenticating with your UiO username and password).
3. To se file permissions you will need to turn on display of these.
4. You should then see permissions shown in the rightmost column (may differ if you turn on display of other elements).
Changing permissions
If you see something that you want to change the permissions on you can option/right-click on it and choose 'show info'. You should then find the permissions under the tab with the same name.
Changing permissions automatically during transfer
If you wish different permissions apllied to your files and folder automatically during transfer you can do this easily with Cyberduck by using the preferences.
This might most likely be of use if you transfer files to a shared folder where others also need permission to edit.
