maybe not the best way but workSmilie

Code:
#!/bin/bash

hostname="ftp.openbsd.com"
username="anonymous"
password="test@.com"

function LsFiles(){
 ftp -i -v -n $hostname <<end_ftp
 	user $username $password
  	cd pub
  	cd OpenBSD
	cd OpenSSH
	ls -la 
	bye
end_ftp
}

LsFiles | grep "$@"  | awk '{print $NF}' > list_of_files.txt

function getFiles(){
 ftp -i -v -n $hostname <<end_ftp
	user $username $password
	cd pub
	cd OpenBSD
	cd OpenSSH
	get $1
	bye
end_ftp
}

for run in $(cat list_of_files.txt)
do
getFiles $run
done

you have to start the script with the follow command
Code:
./ftp.sh "Jul 21"

the script will login to the openbsd server and get files that created on Jun 21th from the OpenSSH directory!

hope that help

NAME
ftphosts - FTP Server individual user host access file SYNOPSIS
/etc/ftpd/ftphosts DESCRIPTION
The ftphosts file is used to allow or deny access to accounts from specified hosts. The following access capabilities are supported: allow username addrglob [addrglob...] Only allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob. deny username addrglob [addrglob...] Do not allow users to login as username from host(s) that match addrglob. A username of * matches all users. A username of anonymous or ftp specifies the anonymous user. addrglob is a regular expression that is matched against hostnames or IP addresses. addrglob may also be in the form address:netmask or address/CIDR, or be the name of a file that starts with a slash ('/') and contains additional address globs. An exclamation mark (`!') placed before the addrglob negates the test. The first allow or deny entry in the ftphosts file that matches a username and host is used. If no entry exists for a username, then access is allowed. Otherwise, a matching allow entry is required to permit access. EXAMPLES
You can use the following ftphosts file to allow anonymous access from any host except those on the class A network 10, with the exception of 10.0.0.* IP addresses, which are allowed access: allow ftp 10.0.0.* deny ftp 10.*.*.* allow ftp * 10.0.0.* can be written as 10.0.0.0:255.255.255.0 or 10.0.0.0/24.
