You can just google or search in the forum on "Automating FTP" / "Automate FTP".

There are tonnes of discussions on this topic Smilie

May be you have issues here:

Code:
 #!/usr/bin/ksh
ftp -v -n "10.29.45.11" << cmd
user "mahesva" "mahesva123"
get rtl.tar
quit
cmd

Rather try using this, when FTPing from UNIX to Windows
Code:
 #!/usr/bin/ksh
ftp -v -n "10.29.45.11" << cmd
quote USER $USER
quote PASS $PASS
get rtl.tar
quit
cmd

I have a script and it works fine Smilie

@dll_fgpa

did you use
Code:
 USER "mahesva"
PASS "mahesva123"

or
Code:
quote USER "mahesva"
quote PASS "mahesva123"

I think the second case will work as expected!
