FTP access to a TrueCrypt'd file?
You'd be as well just writing them down, ensuring they're not easily accessible. Unless you're a Russian spy, no one's going to be THAT thorough. Personally, I use a system, which I keep in my head.
- Actually, sack FTP - you could just GMail it to yourself.detritus

hmmm, mono, don't want to sound bitchy, but why don't you store them in the most secure place ever.

I have literally hundreds to deal with. Some of which are generated with impossible to remember passwords. (It's a work thing rather than a home thing).

Ideally, I'm looking for something like Keychain, but the ability to host on a server securely.

you shouldnt have access to users passwords, passwords should be encrypted, then having a recover password function for the user.

Look into 1Password, I thing it has synchronizing options.

I have one format of password for stuff that deals with money and a quick and easy password for my email and internet accounts.
I've never had any trouble with this sort of system:
Gmail account password = g+password
QBN account password = q+password
Hotmail account password = h+passwordIt's easy to remember and means if one is compromised, there's a bit of effort to get the rest.

I'm on the 1Password train, and I have the app for my iPod touch so I've always got my passwords synced and with me.
