Question about file permission?

Hi, guys, anyone who can answer my question? I have a Virtual Server in freebsd 3. When I login to Virtual Server through telnet, e.g. by user=kevin,password=kevin. Now I access the file "master.passwd" in /etc. But the "permission denied" error comes. NOw tell me that is there any way that I can access that file within the same login(user=kevin,password=kevin) and change the file permissions. Tell me is there any way? Or provide the solution. and also I have no access to the main user (I mean Dedicated server).
