You can script ftp in Unix by writing a script that looks like this. It
takes a
single argument, the root name of the file you're ftp-ing. Obviously, change
the paths as you like, and you can have it put multiple files in one operation
by using 'mput' with wildcard filenames in place of 'put'. You can also issue
'mkdir' commands within the session to create directories if needed.
----------------------------
#!/usr/bin/sh
echo "In doftp.sh\n"
/usr/ucb/ftp -in [servername] <<ENDFTP
user [username] [password]
cd /realvideo
lcd /realvideo
bin
put $1.rm
quit
ENDFTP
--------------------------
If you're on NT, you can do it by using a command like:
ftp -i -s:myfile.ftp [servername]
where myfile.ftp contains the sequential commands you'd issue from an ftp
prompt, each on a separate line.
