chmod 644 filename
that will make a file readable and writable by whoever runs the command, and readable by everyone else.
also, you may need to change directory permissions, depending on where the file is.
you may want to search for a tutorial (or nhf here) somewhere about file permissions.
in fact, here's one right here on lno (though i haven't read it): http://www.linuxnewbie.org/nhf/intel/filesys/fileperms.html
