Simple enough: Automating NJE transfer is trivial -- NJE is fire-and-forget in that the system daemons handle routing, retries, and guaranteed delivery (short of someone clearing spool for some stupid reason). If you've got the NJE connection, it's really, really easy to do this. NJE also doesn't require an active userid on the remote system to transfer files, and it doesn't tie up your userid while the file transfer is going on. Automating FTP transfer is a PITA, especially if you care if it actually arrives and/or if you hit a problem mid-transfer. Out of space errors (or any other trivial problem) are hard to recover from in a FTP script
