cd /usr2/app/naama/
filelist='find . -mmin -60 | tail -n +2 | awk -F "/" '{print $2}' | grep xml'

If you want ftp to not change the file content then you need to use binary transfer instead of ascii. So try:
Code:
ftp -p -n $HOST << EOF
user $USER $PASSWORD 
binary
cd /dest/files4/
put $i
EOF

Code:
ftp -p -n $HOST << EOF
user $USER $PASSWORD 
binary
cd /dest/files4/
put $i
EOF

Please you help .
Thanks .
