FTP Command inside If condition
Hi All,

I am facing a alien problem in unix shell script.
i have a requirement where i have to check first whether a particular file has been created or not if that file has been created then that file needs to be ftped to a particular dir.
My Code is like that

Success='code for file creation which return OK or NOTOK'

Code:
if [ "$Success" == "OK" ]; then

ftp -inv<<EOF
open 00.00.00.00 
user $username $password
cd /home/unix
ascii 
put <file name>
bye
EOF
fi

Now when i execute this statement it gives me syntax error "at line number xyz: '<' is not matched"

When i remover one < from my code "ftp inv<EOF" then it gives me an error
"at line number xxx: 'then' is not matched"

When i am putting this ftp command outside the if condition it is working fine.

Kindly help me out.

Thanks
Aryan

xkbfreegeomrows

XkbFreeGeomRows(3)						   XKB FUNCTIONS						XkbFreeGeomRows(3)

NAME

       XkbFreeGeomRows - Free rows in a section

SYNOPSIS

       void XkbFreeGeomRows (XkbSectionPtr section, int first, int count, Bool free_all);

ARGUMENTS

       - section
	      section in which rows should be freed

       - first
	      first row to be freed

       - count
	      number of rows to be freed

       - free_all
	      True => all rows are freed

DESCRIPTION

       Xkb  provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key-
       board geometries.  Note that these functions merely allocate space for the new element(s), and it is up	to  you  to  fill  in  the  values
       explicitly  in  your  code. These allocation functions increase sz_* but never touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which
       case they reset both sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are  not	able  to  allocate
       space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected.

       If  free_all  is True, all rows are freed regardless of the value of first and count.  Otherwise, the number of rows specified by count are
       freed, beginning with the row specified by first in the specified section.

RETURN VALUES

       Success	      The XkbFreeGeomRows function returns Success when there are no allocation or argument errors.

DIAGNOSTICS

       BadAlloc       Unable to allocate storage

       BadValue       An argument is out of range
