ftp from windows to unix

[ssaachi]

I need a script in windows that I can run to ftp files from my desktop to many of my unix servers.
I created a bat file ( this is a script that we use in unix to ftp files ) with the following info but it does not work.
Please help
ftp -v -n -i 111.19.13.126 <<EOF
user uid pwd
bin
put test.tar
bye
EOF
I have been using ssh secure file transfer to transfer files to all my servers but that is slow. I need to have a script where I can ftp to al lthe servers I need.
thanks

echo USER username>> script.dat
echo password>> script.dat
echo cd directory>> script.dat
echo put filename>> script.dat
echo bye>> script.dat
FTP -n -s:script.dat
del script.dat

i do not know 'dos' and 'window',your exemple is ok but you are opening and closing 6 time the same filedescriptor. this is not wrong, in unix i write, my be it also works on your system:

(
echo open remotehosts
echo USER username
echo password
echo cd directory
echo put filename
do-somethings-else #output goes also to script.dat
echo ....
echo ....
echo bye
)> script.dat

# is the 'rem' char in unix-shell.

Jamisar,

Unfortunately Windows and Unix do not work alike. True, in Unix you can write an FTP script without the help of a second file, but windows requires a script to be read, while unix is smart enough to read straight code.
