I was unsuccessful in getting this script to work. However, that could have been because all ftp traffic from my Linux system's IP Address was blocked at the firewall. After that restriction was lifted, I tried and successfully transmitted a file via "ftp over ssl" using curl. It worked beautifully. Thanks to all who shared their information with me. If anyone is interested I would be happy to send the curl command line I used but after I was directed to try that utility it was pretty easy to figure out the command syntax.

I don't know if Douglas needs some script samples, but I would like to see a few small ones, particularly how the SSL/TLS aspect gets invoked within an FTP session.
