Try This...
Your file will be ftpied as a regular file,even if contains 300 files.
Better zip it and ftp.but if you are zipping then send in binary mode.
read $filename
ftp -inv $IPADDRESS << EOF
user $username $pass
mput $filename
bye

Also Try This,It will take one by one file and ftp them.
It may require some modification this is just a logic
while IFS= read -r line
do
ftp IPADDRESS
put $line
bye
done < test.log

Hi manish

Thank you for ur update

can you please provide the exact logic

to give each filename as input.

this is really in need for me

Thank you

The previous logic will pick files from test.log,you need not to specify filenames one by one manually.It will read line by line from test.log and ftp them ..
while IFS= read -r line
do
ftp IPADDRESS
put $line
bye
done < test.log # I am providing input as test.log

Hi

I had modified the script but i am getting as


username="oracle"
password="test4321"
while IFS= read -r line
do
ftp 172.22.32.48 <<EOF
quote USER $username
quote PASS $password
put $line
bye
done < test.log
EOF

pls suggest if tis is correct and the error i am getting is

test.sh: syntax error at line 13: `end of file' unexpected

Thank you
