FW: How to Automate FTP ????Here you go....

Here's the command:
ftp -n -s:c:\upload.xxx

Here's the file upload.xxx:
open xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
user <your userid>
<password>
cd <directory that you want to go to>
binary
<whatever ftp command>

Issues:
No real error checking.

Suggestions:
Since NT doesn't have cron, use the scheduler..
