Problem sending FTP's from UNIX

[rohith1]

we are trying to send FTP's from our UNiX box to an NT server, and the ID they gave us have to be qualified with a NT domain. On Unix when we try to use this "\" is getting truncated and the call fails. syntax is as follows

File connect.ftp:
user domain\user password
cd test_dir
dir
bye

Here is the command line call :
ftp test.domain.com < connect.ftp

Error Message:
User domainuser cannot log in.
Login failed.
Please login with USER and PASS.
Please login with USER and PASS.

You should run ftp with &quot;-nv&quot; flags
in the connect.ftp file you should have the 1st row like:
user username password

This syntax changes a little between ftp SERVER answers
