yes, I mean enscrypt, and yes my ftp user name/password is different and can not be changed. ...I am thinking about using ncftpput (ftp server does not support ssh), and to enstript files before uploading. I did take a look ati assume oyu mean encrypt ... and yes .. do encrypt the backup files but mroe importantly, use a different ftp login id and unique passwd you do not use anywhere else - assume your ftp server is hacked and the [h/cr]acker is collecting login and passwd info from your other boxes and sniffing all traffic that server is sitting on
Thanks,
