Notes

The FTP protocol is unforgiving so the syntax of your command file must be precise. It is strongly advised to manually execute the FTP transactions and carefully record them before attempting to automate.

ALSO since this is using secure comm you most likely will need to accept an encryption key manually before anything else will work.
