LIST="kccdeda13 kdacct01 kdniat01"

USER=darthur

print -n "unixforme1"
stty -echo
read PASSWORD
stty echo
print

exec 4>&1
ftp -nv >&4 2>&4 |&

for SYSTEM in $LIST ; do
       print -p open $SYSTEM
       print -p user $USER "$PASSWORD"
       print -p cd $pmqutil
       print -p ls -l 
       print -p close
done

print -p bye
wait
exit 0

It still prompts me. I am running the script from an AIX 4.3.3 system attempting to ftp to a Solaris, HP-UX, and AIX systems and they all do the same thing.

ftp

ftp(4)								   File Formats 							    ftp(4)

NAME

       ftp - FTP client configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/default/ftp

DESCRIPTION

       Use  the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment  lines and
       are ignored.

   Behavior Directives
       The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:

       FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no

	   The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
	   make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
	   by default.

       If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that	is
       specified in /etc/default/ftp.
