Permissions established by setting the MD_ACCESS_EXECUTE, MD_ACCESS_SCRIPT, MD_ACCESS_NO_REMOTE_EXECUTE, and MD_ACCESS_NO_REMOTE_SCRIPT bits do not apply to FTP server files.
Remote access flags are operative only when the corresponding general access flag is set. For example, MD_ACCESS_NO_REMOTE_READ has no effect unless MD_ACCESS_READ is also set. If both are set, the local host can read the file, but it cannot be read by the remote client.
