to change permissions try this

chmod number filename.ext


what do you mean by change all file names and folders in short steps??

as kunal said

chmod number filename.ext

but if you want to do a whole folder, try like

chmod number *

Not sure if that'll work, but I think it will. (I'm no ssh guru :D )

chmod -R ### foldername
