So it looks like you script is being run. Does ftp connect to the server?
If something fails under cron, suspect environment vars.
Add something to the script to log them. But in this case, I dont think
so.
Another difference is the lack of a controlling terminal. Ftp uses
terminal features. Nothing about that in the man page though. I recommend
trying a different FTP client. There are others around, and some are much
better, e.g. ncftp, wget.
Also, in scripts, crontabs, etc, remember to use full paths for
commands.
