You might check out SafeTP:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~smcpeak/SafeTP/
I haven't used it, but it looks interesting for two reasons:
1) You can choose not to encrypt the data channel (e.g. encrypt
authentication data only)
2) It uses a proxy that installs into the TCP/IP stack to intercept
outgoing FTP traffic, whereupon it takes over authentication. This means
it works with any FTP client on supported operating systems, apparently at
least windows and unix.
I didn't see any specific reference to licensing but it appears to be open
source.
