master.dbo.xp_cmdshell is failing

Please help !
I run an ftp task which picks up a file from an ftp server through a package it runs fine - no errors.
If I schedule the same dts or if I run the following code in query analyser it fails
declare @.cmd varchar(2000)
declare @.ftpcommandfile varchar(2000)
--Get list of remote files
set @.ftpcommandfile = '-s:\\mathshr01\Marketing\Wr_mrktg_s\SHARED\WM_IM\Collections\Dialer\Dialer_Files\GetDialerFile.txt'
set @.cmd = 'ftp -i -s:' + @.ftpcommandfile
Exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @.cmd
I get the following message:
output ---
Error opening script file -s:\\mathshr01\Marketing\Wr_mrktg_s\SHARED\WM_IM\Collections\Dialer\Dialer_Files\GetDialerFile.txt.
Transfers files to and from a computer running an FTP server service
(sometimes called a daemon). Ftp can be used interactively.
FTP [-v] [-d] [-i] [-n] [-g] [-s:filename] [-a] [-A] [-x:sendbuffer] [-r:recvbuffer] [-b:asyncbuffers] [-w:windowsize] [host]
-v Suppresses display of remote server responses.
-n Suppresses auto-login upon initial connection.
-i Turns off interactive prompting during multiple file
transfers.
-d Enables debugging.
-g Disables filename globbing (see GLOB command).
-s:filename Specifies a text file containing FTP commands; the
commands will automatically run after FTP starts.
-a Use any local interface when binding data connection.
-A login as anonymous.
-x:send sockbuf Overrides the default SO_SNDBUF size of 8192.
-r:recv sockbuf Overrides the default SO_RCVBUF size of 8192.
-b:async count Overrides the default async count of 3
-w:buffer size Overrides the default transfer buffer size of 65535.
host Specifies the host name or IP address of the remote
host to connect to.
Notes:
- mget and mput commands take y/n/q for yes/no/quit.
- Use Control-C to abort commands.
NULLYes, the error is in the FTP command, the s parameter is included twice.
