Can anyone direct me to a script solution that makes a backup of a directory and uploads it to an ftp server?

I was searching for a batch script initially but any solution would do, as long as it is open source.

Thanks in advance, Jean

I'll be working on one soon, but WinSCP has a CLI that you can use to accomplish this:

There are plenty examples using WinSCP on stackoverflow and on other sites, like:
Batch file when using WinSCP and command prompt
Problem in executing the batch file in winscp

You can use this url get more examples:

Please keep in mind WinSCP isn't the only solution for this, it's the one that I use at work :).
