FTPPassword Property
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The FTPPassword property sets authentication data for the security account used to connect to a File Transfer Protocol (FTP) server that maintains replication subscription synchronization images.

A string that contains a valid password

Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT SetFTPPassword(SQLDMO_LPCSTR NewValue);
Remarks
Microsoft SQL Server replication can use FTP to transfer synchronization images of publication schema and data. Use the FTPAddress, FTPPort, FTPLogin, and FTPPassword properties to enable use of FTP for synchronization.
Applications should use the MergePublication2 or TransPublication2 objects when setting the FTPPassword property. The FTPPassword property remains a property of the TransPullSubscription and MergePullSubscription objects to maintain backward compatibility.
Note
If an application sets FTPPassword with the MergePublication2 or TransPublication2 object after the initial snapshot has been created, a new snapshot must be generated. Snapshots are applied when the next scheduled snapshot agent runs.
