Rob> Hi Curt, It sounds like you want "sftp", which comes with SSHv2 and Rob> is a passable FTP clone for SSH ( not quite as advanced as say Rob> ncftp, but decent ). Or in OpenSSH version 2.5 (or thereabouts - I don't remember exactly) and later. The ssh in sid (2.9p2) has it, and I would guess that woody's version should have it too. If you must use potato, though, potato has an "sftp" package, but this is different from the sftp protocol used by ssh, and you may run into problems when you upgrade your ssh package (and indeed, sid's ssh conflicts with sftp, although sid has an "hsftp" package which seems to give the same functionality as "sftp" did).

A fifth alternative, if you use emacs, is to get the TRAMP package, which is like ange-ftp on steroids. There's a tramp package in sid (and maybe woody), or you can download the source from http://ls6-www.informatik.uni-dortmund.de/~grossjoh/emacs/tramp.html Rob> One last note : keep in mind that if you decide to tunnel FTP over Rob> SSH for some reason ( as some do ), FTP uses two TCP ports, not one Rob> : one for control ( commands ) and the other for data.
