I put your code in a file by name, "ftp_test.sh".
Code:
cat ftp_test.sh

gives me
Code:
/usr/bin/ftp -n ftpsitename.com <<EOF
quote USER 12345
quote PASS 12345
mget /FILENAME* /directory_location_to/copy/on_server2/
EOF

and I use
Quote:
sh ftp_test.sh
to run the script on server2, I am now getting the following error:
Quote:
Filename provided by server doesn't match pattern `/FILENAME*': FILENAME26.txt
Refusing to handle insecure file list
Currently, FILENAME26.txt is the only file available on the server1.

So I tried to give the exact file name which is present on server1 and changed "mget" to "get" to check if this copies the file on server2 location (/directory_location_to/copy/on_server2/) this time, now the script looks like
Code:
cat ftp_test.sh
/usr/bin/ftp -n ftpsitename.com <<EOF
quote USER 12345
quote PASS 12345
get /FILENAME26.txt /directory_location_to/copy/on_server2/
EOF

i get a different error:
Quote:
/directory_location_to/copy/on_server2/: No such file or directory.
mget FILENAME26.txt?
However, I checked on server 2 if the directory
Quote:
/directory_location_to/copy/on_server2/
exists or not, and it does exist... I even tried to get the file on server2 home directory, but I get the same error as above... How does the command know to put the file on the server2(since we are not mentioning about it in the code)??? any further suggestion on this???

NNTP-PULL(1)							 nntp-pull manual						      NNTP-PULL(1)

NAME

       nntp-pull - fetch articles from the server to the mbox

SYNOPSIS

       nntp-pull [options...] groupname [groupname...]

DESCRIPTION

       Fetch messages from the server and save them into the mailbox (mbox format). Every argument is supposed to be a name of group, optionally
       followed by a '>' character and mbox filename. If the mbox filename is omitted, it defaults to the name of the group.

       Besides global options (described in sinntp(1)), nntp-pull command takes following options:

       --limit=N
	   Pull at most N messages.

       --reget
	   Start from the first available message.

EXAMPLES

       nntp-pull --server=news.example.org --limit=50 'comp.os.linux>os-linux' Fetches at most the 50 newest articles from the newsgroup
       comp.os.linux located on news.example.org server and appends them to the os-linux mailbox file.

       nntp-pull --server=news.example.net --reget --limit=3 comp.os.windows Fetches at most the 3 oldest articles from the newsgroup
       comp.os.windows located on news.example.net server and appends them to the comp.os.windows mailbox file.
