you can try
ftp -n 192.20.20.5 <<!
user "user_name" "user_password"
cd /tmp
put gatherstats
bye
!
Note
"user_name" is the users ftp name and "user_password" users password
This method works but it is not secure, A secure
way of having secure ftp through script is to use
sftp. you need to install ssh and then export the
public key, this way you will be able to use sftp without the need to have passwords in script.

NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no
The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
