You cannot ftp from a file share.
You need to have an FTP service running on remote server and it has to have
the files in it's directory - not just anywhere on the server.

You are safer and better of using file sharing and a copy command.

It's more secure than ftp. FTP will send credential in plain text. In a
domain you should NOT use FTP. FTP is for Internet access as a convenience
but is never recommended over Windows file transfer methods which use
Windows security by default.
