If you want to transfer the file to another server via FTP after backing up the file in crontab, you can use the following method to compile shell script:

#! /Bin/sh
FTPHOST = "ftp. server. address"
USERNAME = "ftp-username"
PASSWORD = "ftp-password"

Directory of the local storage .tar.gz backup file
FILE = "/backup/dir"

# FTP Server Backup Directory
BACKUPDIR = "/ftpserver/backup"

# Log on to the FTP Server and transfer files
Ftp-n FTPHOST <user $ USERNAME $ PASSWORD
Cd $ BACKUPDIR
Mput $ FILE/* .tar.gz
Quit
EOF

After the shell script is stored, Run "chmod + x filename. sh" to grant the execution permission, and then put it in crontab.
