Hi Im trying to write a bash script which will run on Checkpoint
Secureplatform (which is
Redhat indeed) seems below. First part of the script will make an
yesterdays log archive ,
other part will  copy this archive to an ftp server. The archive
creation process works fine when ftp part is commented or deleted, but
doesnt work. As one script or another script for ftp, how can i work
this to create the archive and and copy it to the ftp site.

FTP won't read passwords from a redirected input script.

You need to create .netrc file, or maybe expect will work but it's so
long since I worked with automated FTP that I can't remember.


Imho the easiest solution is to use lftp. All this is easily scripted. E.g.:
open -u username,password ftp.site.com
cd /blah/blah
lcd /blah/blah
get this
put that
bye

save that in a file and then just lftp -f <file>
