Uhhh ?

I can't believe people are commenting in here not knowing that FTP 
is
plaintext. Any infosec 101 book will tell you this. Along with 
telnet.

Most 'infosec 101' books also tell you buffer overflows, XSS and 
other such shit cause problems, yet people post that here all day.

Don't use them, use the secure alternatives, such as FTPS or SFTP
(which is indeed a subprocess of SSH, look at sshd.conf if you 
don't
believe me, nevermind that it was already covered) and SSH in 
place of
telnet. Those protocols are specifically meant to replace their
insecure counterparts.


You can't tell me what to do.

Here's a few references on this "discovery."

If you don't want your passwords stored in this manner, remember 
your
passwords or use a password manager.


Stop telling me what to do. You are wrong anyway, suck my foot old 
man.
