The ftp client ships with Linux is scriptable. Just put the commands
that you would normally type into a file. It might look like this:

open ftp.mydomain.com
lcd /some/local/dir
cd /some/remote/dir
binary
prompt
mput *
quit

See the ftp man page for a description of all commands.

If the server requires a login, create a ~/.netrc file with permissions
0600 that contains the login info (man netrc):

machine ftp.mydomain.com    login myname    password mypassword


Then run ftp with the script as input:

  ftp < myftpscript
