but how will i provide the password in this case automatically, because the script will be running without any user interaction.

by using ftp, i can pass the password like

Code:
ftp -n remote_machine <<_ftp
  quote USER username
  quote PASS password
  ls
  bye
_ftp

is there any other way to provide the password ?
