ftp to unix machine

Hi All,

I am trying to write a batch file that would ftp to a unix machine
and then download the required files from there.
But when it asks for the authentication each time, is there some way so
that I can pass the user name and password to the batch file, instead of
typing it each time

--------------------
ftp -n hostname
USER
PASS
mget *
--------------------

The batch file that I created is as above, but it doesnt work.
All suggestions welcome

Use "FTP Templates/Download files using file mask job template" in 24x7 Scheduler.
