Shell Programming and Scripting

I am doing an ftp of around 1010 files and I am using mput for this. For some reason its only transferring 10 or 20 files and the rest are
not getting transferred. There is some socket error in the log. is there an issue if we have more than 50 or so files for mput.

here is the o/p in the log

ftp: setsockopt (ignored): Permission denied
---> PORT 100,56,789,76,32
I am doing ftp in passive mode

What can be the issue?

Maybe you don't have permission to read all the files?
What are the source and destination OS, and ftp client/server programs?
Can you tar/archive all the files first?

yes. they are ftp server. I am putting files on them. but if i tar the files, i can't untar then in ftp session right? I need a seperate script for that but i dont have the privilege for that

I have all the permissions on all files and also able to transfer some files. only some are not getting trasnfered. Ones with out the socket error are not getting trasnfered and ones with socket error are getting transfered.
