FTP script variable issue

Hi ,

I have a following code ,I need to send two files on FTP server using single code
Code:
UDL_FTIHOST_1=podftiapp02.com
UDL_FTIUSER_1=dbsunny
UDL_FTIPWD_1=sunny@11
UDL_FTIHOST_2=podftiapp01.com
UDL_FTIUSER_2=dbamy
UDL_FTIPWD_2=amy@12

count=2

i=1
while [ $i -le $count ]
do
 
FTIHOST=$(echo UDL_FTIHOST_${i})
echo $FTIHOST
FTIUSER=$(echo UDL_FTIUSER_${i})
FTIPWD=$(echo UDL_FTIPWD_${i})


ftp -n -v ${FTIHOST} <<EOF > ${LOGFILE}
cd ..
user ${FTIUSER} ${FTIPWD}

i=`expr $i + 1`
echo "--------------------------------------------------------------"

done >> ${LOG_FILE}

However while executing the above code , FTIHOST assigns the value UDL_FTIHOST_1 and UDL_FTIHOST_2 not podftiapp02.com and podftiapp01.com
respectively.

eg

Code:
ftp -n -v UDL_FTIHOST_1


Similary it is happening for FTIUSER and FTPWD

Thanks a lot for advice

Regards,
Sonu
