Execution problem with the FTP shellscript
Hi Friends

I am new to the shell script and i have a script which will connect to server enviornment which will read a file and will FTP to an another server location. But while executing this script FTP transfer is not occuring. But when I enter in FTP mode I am able to transfer the file from one server to another.

Script is

Code:
 
#!/bin/sh
FILE_NAME="/user/sba-appl/productie/sscr/ramu/dd.DAT"
HOST='130.144.240.108'
USER='user name'
PASSWD='password'
ftp -nv <<EOF
open $HOST
user $USER $PASSWD
cd /user/sba-appl/test/sscr/ramu
put $FILE_NAME
EOF

The error which I am getting is 553. The problem is I cant change the chmod permission of the target server as it is an production server. the root directory user doesnt have a write permission. But while using FTP mode I am able to write the the file but through script I am getting 553 error.Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem.Whether I can use symbolic links??. But If i am able to transfer the file using th FTP mode why it is not working with the script??

ftpconfig

ftpconfig(1M)						  System Administration Commands					     ftpconfig(1M)

NAME

       ftpconfig - set up anonymous FTP

SYNOPSIS

       ftpconfig [ftpdir]

       ftpconfig -d ftpdir

DESCRIPTION

       The ftpconfig script is executed by the super user to set up anonymous FTP. Anonymous FTP allows users to remotely log on to the FTP server
       by specifying the user name  ftp or anonymous and the user's email  address as password. The anonymous users  are  logged  on  to  the  FTP
       Server  and  given  access to a restricted file area with its own file system root. See chroot(2). The FTP area has  its own minimal system
       files.

       This command will copy and set up all the components needed to operate an anonymous FTP server, including creating the  ftp  user  account,
       creating  device  nodes,  copying  /usr/lib files, and copying timezone data.  The passwd and group files set up have been stripped down to
       prevent malicious users from finding login names on the server.	The anonymous file area will be placed	under  ftpdir.	If  the  ftp  user
       account already exists, then the current FTP area is used, and the system files in it are updated. All other files are left untouched. This
       command should be run to update the anonymous FTP area's configuration whenever a system patch is installed, or the system is upgraded.

OPTIONS

       -d     Create a new or update an existing ftpdir without creating or updating the ftp user account. Use this option when creating guest FTP
	      user accounts.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       ftpdir	 The absolute pathname of the directory under which the anonymous FTP area is set up.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0     Successful completion

       1     Improper usage of the command

       2     Command failed
