You could include the following in your script.
-----------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
ftp -in <<-!
open hostname
user ftp -passwd
cd /pub/linux/kernel/v2.0/
binary
hash
get linux-2.0.36.tar.gz
!
------------------------------------
Of course you will need to change "hostname" to the host you wish to ftp
with and "-passwd" to your passwd for that particular system.
I think you will understand the rest.
