FTP Script

Code:
#!/bin/bash -vx
while read g
do
echo $g
ftp -i $g<<++EOT++
user ftp ftp@anonymous.com
lcd c:\investigate
hash
bell
bin
mget *.*
quit
++EOT++
done < ftphosts.txt

The file ftphosts is read into the $g variable. The problem is echoing ftp and anonymous at the name and password prompt. The here section between ++EOT++ and ++EOT++ should echo
username and password, then turn hash on, bell and binary before pulling down all the files into
c:\investigate. How do I get the user and password to be passed to the FTP servers?

Thank you in advance.
Gregg Dotoli
