Can someone please tell me how do I change umask settings in Solaris 7 for ftp file transfer. I think the system is using the default Sun ftp

On my SunOS 5.6 box it is a matter of adding the keyword UMASK=nnn to the file /etc/default/ftpd. Check the man page for ftpd for an exact reference on Solaris 7. Your ftp daemon will have to be shutdown and restarted for the change to take effect.
I hope this was helpful.
