I just want to jump in here and suggest that ColdFusion is probably not the best tool for your problem. I know you are probably very familiar with CF, and maybe not familiar with other options like batch scripting, but I'd presume that those tools are better suited to your task. There are some ftp clients I've used in the past that can be scripted, and this is the route I'd be inclined to take. If you happen to have a Linux server available and are familiar with Linux scripting, I'd think that would be even easier than finding a Windows client that can be scripted.
