Hi
after the first line, it stuck up..

ftp -in ftp.site.com <<End-Of-Session
user user_id pass_word

also it is not accepting the username and password this way.

Did it work in your case ?

   done
   echo 'quit' >> /law1/lawson/logan/edi_bin/om810ftp
   echo 'E-O-F' >> /law1/lawson/logan/edi_bin/om810ftp
   . /law1/lawson/logan/edi_bin/om810ftp
   rm /law1/lawson/logan/OWENS/temp/*
   cp /law1/lawson/logan/OWENS/OM810 /law1/lawson/logan/edi_arch_inb/OM810.inb."$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)"
else
    echo "File OM810 not found or is empty"
	return 12
fi
exit

I ftp into the site and grab all the files. I then merge them into one file. I check to see if the one file is there which means that There were files on the remote site and if the one file is there I create an ftp script that will delete all of the files at the remote site. I then execute the script, delete any files on the local machine I no longer need and archive the one file. This is not exactly what you want, but I thought it might give you some ideas. Good luck!
