ftp script

I new to unix scripting. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I need to write a secure ftp script. I need to pass in the source server name, file name, destination server and destination file name.

Any help would appreciated..

secure ftp == sftp. This requires that you create keys using ssh-keygen then place them in your remote login directory.

Why do you need the source server name? Are you going to use scp to move the file from one remote host to another?

May be i don't need the source server.
I wanted to make it generic so I don't have to hardcode any directory/server names. How do i accept these name with in the script.
