All what it says that certain files need to have certain permissions.

chmod -R ug+rwx design extension settings settings/override settings/siteaccess settings/siteaccess/admin var var/cache var/storage

chown -R nobody: design extension settings settings/override settings/siteaccess settings/siteaccess/admin var var/cache var/storage

May be the easiest solution is to send the above commands to your administrator and ask him/her to help you executing them right on the server.

Check and see if your ftp client can change permissions recursively.

The hardest solution is to use ssh if you have linux sever as

ssh youromain.com

Then run commands yourself.

I don't think you need an access to php.ini for this issue.
