site-deploy: how to suppress password

[oliver]

Hi,

I use Hudson together with Maven to copy the generated sites to a server via 
FTP (with 'mvn site-deploy'). The entry for distribution management looks like 

  <distributionManagement>
    <site>
      <id>ftp-project</id>
      <name>Project Website</name>
      <url>ftp://ftp.somewhere.xy</url>
    </site>
  </distributionManagement>

With this entry and the corresponding settings.xml it works as expected. But I 
see always the the password in the Hudson output. Is there a possibility to 
suppress the output of the password?

regards
Oliver
