Well I don't know if you need two ports for FTP tunneled through
SSH, but seems like you could not create a data connection for FTP
over SSH.

I recommend FTPS as it runs on usual FTP ports (21 for connection
and some other for data channel) and is programmed in a secure
and established manner using standard SSL package.

I've developed an FTP client implementation using FTPS called Runftp
and should be downloaded in Market. (Searched by "Runftp" maybe)
