Ok thanks for your helpSmilie Im sorry if there was a lot of information missing, we live and we learn;-)

Ok...
The script that seems to match my needs is:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

HOST=ftp.server.com  #This is the FTP servers host or IP address.
USER=(myftpusername)             #This is the FTP user that has access to the server.
PASS=mypassword          #This is the password for the FTP user.

# Call 1. Uses the ftp command with the -inv switches.  -i turns off interactiv$

ftp -inv $HOST << EOF

# Call 2. Here the login credentials are supplied by calling the variables.

user $USER $PASS

# Call 3. Here you will change to the directory where you want to put or get
cd /public_html/fotosupport.se/Nigge

# Call4.  Here you will tell FTP to put or get the file.
put test.txt

bye
EOF

When I run it I get the following:
Quote:
./ftpscript.sh: line 22: warning: here-document at line 9 delimited by end-of-file (wanted `EOF')
ftp: invalid option -- i
ftp V1.00.10182010
Usage
start : start ftp server
stop : stop ftp server
restart : restart ftp server
reload : reload ftp.xml from disk
create-link : user change group need to re-create all link
write-magic-number : write ftp magic to mtd , hd

-D : Del command
-M : Modify command
-R : Remove command
-n : ftp share name
-p : ftp share path
-r : read list
-w : write list
-d : deny access list
-c : clean ftp share
-h : help
-x : add block IP. EX: ftp -x xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,1/0(type), 1~31(days)
-z : remove blocked IP
-b : setting blocking duration
-t : setting monitor ftp retry in period
-E : enable/disable anonymous user access ftp
-u : user or group
-a : attribute(0->calcel ,1->R , 2->R/W 3->denny access
ftp start , ftp stop , ftp restart , ftp reload
ex: ftp -A -n abc -p /mnt/HD/HD_a2/123 -r "#a1#" -w "#a2#,#a3#" -d ""
ex: ftp -D -n abc
ex: ftp -M -n abc -r "#a1#" -w "#a2#,#a3#" -d ""
ex: ftp -M -n abc -u a1 -a 1
ex: ftp -R -u a1
And once again, thanks a lot for your help:-)

CRON(8) 						      System Manager's Manual							   CRON(8)

NAME
cron - clock daemon SYNOPSIS
auth/cron [-c] DESCRIPTION
Cron executes commands at specified dates and times according to instructions in the files /cron/user/cron. It runs only on an authentica- tion server. Option -c causes cron to create /cron/user and /cron/user/cron for the current user; it can be run from any Plan 9 machine. Blank lines and lines beginning with # in these files are ignored. Entries are lines with fields minute hour day month weekday host command Command is a string, which may contain spaces, that is passed to an rc(1) running on host for execution. The first five fields are integer patterns for minute 0-59 hour 0-23 day of month 1-31 month of year 1-12 day of week 0-6; 0=Sunday The syntax for these patterns is time : '*' | range range : number | number '-' number | range ',' range Each number must be in the appropriate range. Hyphens specify inclusive ranges of valid times; commas specify lists of valid time ranges. To run the job, cron calls host and authenticates remote execution, equivalent to running rx host command (see con(1)). The user's profile is run with $service set to rx. Cron is not a reliable service. It skips commands if it cannot reach host within two minutes, or if the cron daemon is not running at the appropriate time. EXAMPLES
Here is the job that mails system news. % cat /cron/upas/cron # send system news 15 8-17, 21 *** helix /mail/lib/mailnews % SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/auth/cron.c SEE ALSO
con(1), rc(1) CRON(8)
