Why bother FTP'ing the file?  Not only is the file sent cleartext
("orders" sound like they make include credit card info, etc.) but it's
also one more system (and another daemon, e.g. security concerns) to
write and support.  Just make the file accessible via password protected
HTTPS.  That would make it not only secure but also utilize existing
Orion's functionality.
