Ndmpcopy version 2 doesn't require command line passwords. It prompts for the passwords when the session starts.
That doesn't work well for cron or other unattended scripts, though. It would be nice to be able to kick off an ndmp copy via ssh, using strong authentication and filer-side authorization to reduce the risk of an attacker offloading all of your data to an unauthorized host.
Okay, I'll take my paranoia hat off now. :)
