Easiest would be to add yourselves as a member of the root group and change
the permissions of the /home/httpd/html directory to 0775 (instead of the
default 0755). Now you - as a member of the root group (which owns the
directory) - should have permissions to write into that directory.
Now ftp as vibhu, change directory to /home/httpd/html and put your files
in there..
