I am new to unix scripting.

Looking for some direction here how to do the following


I have a file that contains names



Bill
Jim
Mike
Tom
Ed



I need to loop through the file and replace a variable and then do a FTP

Start of loop (I would guess do a while?)
Some how access file (???)
LCD=/home/aim/$LOGNAME/TELD_TIER1_SUPPORT
OCD=/home/aim/$name/TELD_TIER1_SUPPORT
(Bill) needs to go into $name
(Jim) second time around
(Mike) thrid time around
FTP (I have working)
Back to start of loop

I got it working thanks anyway
