Thanks for the response. Please see my FTP code snippet below

Code:

for trial in {1..5} # Retry FTP 5 times
   do
     echo -e "\nAttempt to FTP the file ==> $trial" >> $upload_log;
     /usr/bin/ftp -niv $ftp_host > ${work_dir}/${abc}_ftp_temp.txt 2>&1 <<EndFtp
      quote user $ftp_user
      quote pass $ftp_pass
      cd $ftp_dir
      bin
      put $upload_file_name
EndFtp
      cat ${work_dir}/${abc}_ftp_temp.txt >> $upload_log;
      egrep -ri -h "^226" ${work_dir}/${abc}_ftp_temp.txt > /dev/null; 
# Transfer Check
      found=`echo $?`;
      if [ $found -eq 0 ]; then 
 # If FTP is successfull, break the loop and try FTP for next file
         break;
         elif [ $trial -lt 5 ]; then
           sleep 60;  # Halt the process for a minute
      fi
  done

FTP log is written to a temp file. After FTP is complete, code will search for string starting with 226 ( FTP Code for transfer success ) and if not available, then do a FTP retry. If 226 is available, loop is exited.

Here the problem is 226 code is possible for half transferred files too..So i am trying to find a way to find out part of the file transferes and re-transfer them.

FTPUSERS(5)						     Linux Programmer's Manual						       FTPUSERS(5)

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)
