I upgraded to Lion and now there is no FTP setting in System Preferences 2

By default now, Apple has disabled FTP in OSX Lion, even if you had it turned on before upgrading. 


You can enable FTP in Lion still by doing the following steps:

1...Open a terminal (Applications->Utilities->Terminal)

2…Type in (OR copy/Paste)

 sudo -s launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist


If you'd like to turn off FTP again,  run Terminal and type:

sudo -s launchctl unload -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist
