I now have an ubuntu server with a user called rvdutchman, I also have a LAMP server running on that server. with using apache2 the dir where you can put your website on is /var/www/html. So I login to the site with the rvdutchman user with ftps. I am in the root, sudo and www-data group. but when I go to that dir I only can copy things from it. when I try to rm or add a dir/file I dont have permissons. Is there anyway I can give the user rvdutchman that permessions?

Who does the folder /etc/www/html belong to? Group root and User www-data or both www-data ? In that case, you can add your user to both groups as you said and for that period you can change the permissions for 0775 and after which you can convert it to 0755
This should help.
