Question Unix FTP Script connecting through proxy Not working

Hi All,
can some one please help me to solve this issue, its urgentSmilie
We need to FTP a file form our Unix server to an external client FTP location.
I am trying to connect to the proxy server first and then use the below USER comment to connect to the external FTP server, and its working correctly when I am doing it manually
user <userid>@<ftpservername> <password>
But when I try to user the same comment in a shell script its not working.
Can some one please tell me whether this type of connection is possible from the script.

Script code
#!/bin/sh
ftp -n <proxy server addres> <<END_SCRIPT
quote USER '<userid>'
quote PASS '<password>'
user <remote user id>@<remote sever name> <password>

Please see the error below that I am getting when I run the script

ERROR LOG
Connected to ftp-gw.glb2.hedani.net.
220 Welcome to the <company name>....
331 Enter authentication password for user id

thanks for your help

NAME
ftpusers - list of users that may not log in via the FTP daemon DESCRIPTION
The text file ftpusers contains a list of users that may not log in using the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server daemon. This file is used not merely for system administration purposes but for improving security within a TCP/IP networked environment. It will typically contain a list of the users that either have no business using ftp or have too many privileges to be allowed to log in through the FTP server daemon. Such users usually include root, daemon, bin, uucp, and news. If your FTP server daemon doesn't use ftpusers then it is suggested that you read its documentation to find out how to block access for certain users. Washington University FTP server Daemon (wuftpd) and Professional FTP Daemon (proftpd) are known to make use of ftpusers. Format The format of ftpusers is very simple. There is one account name (or username) per line. Lines starting with a # are ignored. FILES
/etc/ftpusers SEE ALSO
passwd(5), proftpd(8), wuftpd(8) COLOPHON
