Well no that wouldn't work.

If there's an administrator password there would be no way to prevent someone from resetting it.

My idea is very simple and it would work for the most part similar to cuteftp pro.

The problem however is as mxxcon said, There needs to be some way to prevent anyone from setting a password and locking the original user out. There may not be a perfect solution.

I'm not sure how cuteftp pro handles command line connecting but I have to wonder how it's handled. If a password is required to access FlashFXP a automated command line connection would not be possible.

It will use a 64bit blowfish cipher. I have already created a wrapper for my IniFile routines.
