FTP Scripts on windows

ftp -s:script.txt ftp.server.com

yourUserName
yourPassword
bin
cd /files
put file.zip
bye

What if you want to run an "automated" script but still have the user enter a username and password.. in other words do no have the username and password coded in the script?
Thanks

I am running a .bat file that calls an ftp server and references the commands using a .txt file. Everything is working well.

My problem is when the built in windows FTP client tries to download a file from the ftp server using the get command, if the file does not exist on the server, it wipes out the file that is locally on my C: drive and leaves me with a blank file.

I must always keep the field headers in this file and as such I must make sure that if there is no file on the server to leave the one locally alone.

How can this be done?

(Is there a way to first look to see if the file exist and only then initiate the download?)

Need help - - - - - - Thanks!

I'm logged onto windows machine and have to get files from a unix server. So i created my script.txt as follows:

userid
password
bin
cd /mydir
get file1
bye

..and execute the script with:
ftp -s:ftpscript.txt server1

this works fine for 1 file, but i want to get over 10,000 files all with very different names; mget prompts for Y/N response; i can't get the folder name because there are over 60,000 files in the directory and i only want 10,000;
is there a command to read the entire list of files i want to ftp from a file and ftp?

Is anyone could help, how files from one ftp site could be automatically movet to next secure ftp site in regular interval of time?

I need to upload a file from my Windows box to a remote UNIX box.The file that needs to be transferred is very big (approx 200MB) in size and the network connectivity is very poor.The issue here is as soon as I try uploading that file and hardy 30-40% of the upload is completed,the network goes down and when I start it starts uploading from the beginning again.I need a process where I can upload the file and even if the network goes,suppose the network goes down when the file has uploaded 30%,when the network comes back, it sould start from 30% instead of starting from 0%.I mean that the upload should continue from the place it stopped. Could someone please help??
