Admin problem too.
FTP assumes,  by virtue of the nature of the implementations
in use today,  that you are signing on as some user and writing into
some authorized filespace.   NJE springs from a very different model:
the idea is (files sent as) jobs being delivered around the network.
UFT was designed to offer NJE functionality that FTP lacked.
You could get the same effect with e-mail and attachments,
except that e-mail is designed for correspondence
(and there's the spam problem).
