I see there is a typo in the variable that you are using inside the ftp client program!

You defined the variable PASSWD initially, but later you are using variable PASSWORD which is undefined:
Code:
PASSWD='password'

sourcedir=`dirname $FILE_NAME`
filename=`basename $FILE_NAME`

cd $sourcedir

ftp -nv $HOST <<EOF
user $USER $PASSWORD

By the way if this approach still does not work, use ftp client program command quote to send username and password to ftp server:
Code:
ftp -n $HOST <<EOF
quote USER $USER
quote PASS $PASSWD
put $filename
EOF
