The login folder might not be the same as the root folder. If you can ftp into it with commandline FTP then 'cd /' and see etc, usr, sbin, and stuff, then it's not a chroot.

IF you leave the second filename, the destination filename, off completely it should just end up in the login folder. I wasn't certain the login folder was actually your minecraft folder at the time, so tried to cover all possibilities.

As for the minecraft structure, this is simply a daily tarball that I have built of the entire structure of the server. So the find statement I was using before (if it had the -1 vs. the +45 as the argument for mtime) will find only one file each time it is run, the one that is within 24 hours of now.
I wouldn't bother with find then -- just ls -t and grab the topmost. That makes it a lot simpler.

Code:
ftp 192.168.0.10 <<EOF
put /home/mc/archive/sbhouse/$(ls -t /home/mc/archive/sbhouse | head -n 1)
quit
EOF

That <<EOF ... EOF pattern is a here-document, which is equivalent to feeding the section of text inside it into ftp's standard input with a pipe. The ending EOF must be at the very beginning of the line, or it won't be considered the end of the here-document...

For that matter, why not make uploading the tarball part of the process which creates it?
