Might want to try using wget or ncftpget as they are non interactive
FTP's and will probably work a bit better from a cron.

Subject: ftp from cron
 
Hi I have been trying to cron to perform a ftp retrieve with the
following line
 
30      *       *       *       *       /usr/bin/ftp -n -v <
/www/ascetgroup/mildura/admin/getweather
 
but I get the following error.
