If you are using shared web hosting you should be able to do this through the control panel for your account. There will be an area where you can set permissions for folders and files. Check with your host for this information.

If you are using a VPS or dedicated server you can use remote desktop to connect to the server and set the permissions that way.

Just a general note, it is not really a good practice to set your web.config to read/write. If you need to set a value during an app install you should make sure the web.config is set to read only afterwards.
