This is why you use the SSH key, which provides 2048-bit encryption and is far more secure than a manual password. For someone else to connect they would need a copy of your private key and know how you were using it.

I had originally included passwords in the setup instructions, but since FileZilla doesn't support them, and in fact strips them when converting your private key, this was just a waste of time. I removed the relevant steps to simplify the procedure.
