Alejandro,

This is simple, but works ....

#!/usr/bin/ksh
# creates $LOGNAME/.netrc using current env. vars
export LOG_FILE='/data/MakeNetRC.log'

cd $HOME # Change to $HOME
if test ! -f .netrc # If no .netrc, exit
        then
        exit
fi

echo '============================' >>$LOG_FILE
echo 'Begin ' `date +%m-%d-%Y` $LOGNAME >>$LOG_FILE
echo ' '`date +%H:%M:%S` >>$LOG_FILE
echo '============================' >>$LOG_FILE
mv .netrc old.netrc
echo 'machine <YOUR MACHINE>' >.netrc
echo 'login <YOUR $LOGNAME>' >>.netrc
echo 'password <YOUR PASSWORD>' >>.netrc
echo 'macdef init' >>.netrc
echo 'lcd <YOUR LOCAL DIRECTORY>' >>.netrc
echo 'cd <YOUR REMOTE DIRECTORY>' >>.netrc
...
                ADD FTP Commands you wish to invoke here
...
echo 'quit' >>.netrc
echo '' >>.netrc
chmod 0400 .netrc
ftp -i<YOUR MACHINE>
chmod 0664 .netrc
mv old.netrc .netrc
echo '============================' >>$LOG_FILE
echo 'FTP process Complete ' `date +%m-%d-%Y` $LOGNAME >>$LOG_FILE
