This is just to give you a clear understanding of how ftp will do in failed cases ....
ftp copy will not give you an error status of "1" even when it is failed , because the last command that is executed will be 'bye' , so "$?" will always return a "0"( i.e status 'success') .
By which means irrespective of the file transfer you will get the return status as success always which may mislead you .
