sftp is not a shell. You can't type shell commands into it.

Try ssh, that is a shell.

Could you show what you tried? That'd give a better indication of what you want.

Something like this perhaps:

ssh 534unix <<EOF
ftp <<END
        <ftp commands>
END
EOF

betware that END and EOF must be at the beginning of the line with no spaces in front.

ssh ftp@UMW.com 
cd /FTP/test_ftp/SC/Outbound/
ftp -inv US.com <<EOF

user $SC_USER $Y5$
cd /RD/Out
ascii
mput *

when i run this script its moving into the sever as

bash-2.05$

and thats its no further execution

ssh doesn't automatically "eat" the lines below it. To feed lines into ssh, you must actually feed them into ssh, much like you feed them into ftp.

Try the code I actually gave you.
