I tried to write a bash script which upload a file to an ip address with ftp connection, but i have an issue or something like that. I have a .txt file with a lot of line. Every line have an ip address, nothing else just the ip address. So i want to read the ip address from the text file and use it as a variable. This is my ugly code:
#!/bin/bash
input="example.txt";
user="admin"
pass="12345678"
filename="example.src"
while IFS= read -r line; do
connection
done < $input
connection(){
ftp -i -n $line
user $user $pass
put $filename
bye
}
With the first ip address int the first line the connection and the upload is successful but the other lines got error like this:
Login incorrect Login failed. Please login with USER and PASS Passive mode refused.

Commands of ftp can be written in a here-document.
#!/bin/bash
connection(){
ftp -i -n $line << EOS
user $user $pass
put $filename
bye
EOS
}
input="example.txt";
user="admin"
pass="12345678"
filename="example.src"
while IFS= read -r line; do
connection
done < $input
