    We have this ability (FTP server on a PC) using Sytek's licensed copy
    FTP software TCP/IP....  The ftp server even uses the standard unix
    encryption method for the password file...

This isn't strictly true - we use the Unix password file *format*, but
we didn't dare to use Unix encryption on the password itself, lest our
product get hit with U.S. export restrictions...
