Having a password in the clear isn't very smart, even with internal networking. sFTP, scp, and all sorts of other encrypted file transfer methods exist. We all need to stop enabling FTP anywhere unless it is pull and doesn't use a password - basically use FTP like an anonymous web site. Why do people still use FTP?
