The question is really one of abuse. Our position is not that the
university point-of-contact has to do the FTPs, but, rather, that the
people that get the username and password don't start giving it out
to everyone that they know. If you can stress to the student(s) that
you give the information to that they are NOT to pass it along (even
to other grad students), then I think we can keep a lid on things.
