ok - here's a sample format of the file that specifies what you're 'get'-ing where it supposed to go:

listOfFile.txt:
Code:
/sourceDirPath1/sourceFileName1 /destinationDirPath1
/sourceDirPath1/sourceFileName2 /destinationDirPath1
/sourceDirPath2/sourceFileName1 /destinationDirPath2
/sourceDirPath3/sourceFileName1 /destinationDirPath3

Here's the modifed code:
Code:
#!/bin/ksh

listOfFiles='listOfFile.txt'

ftp -nv <<EOF
open $FTP_SRVR
user $FTP_USR
pass $FTP_PWD
ascii
$(sed 's#^\([^ ][^ ]*\)/\([^ ][^ ]*\) \(.*\)#get \1/\2 \3/\2#' ${listOfFiles})
bye
EOF

I'll let you work on the format of your 'listOfFiles' file and the corresponding changes to the script, but the above should give you enough of the 'hint' of the general idea.
Good luck!

If you dont need
mget *
to prompt you for your answer, u can use "-i" option with ftp
