Actually, if you look at (probably the last line of) /etc/ssh/sshd_config,
you may see:

Subsystem       sftp    /<path>/<to>/sftp-server

In other words, OpenSSH's sshd has a secure ftp service ready to go.
The nice thing is, it uses ssh authentication, so the setup is the
same as ssh.

Well, this is designed to be a fast and secure way to _server files to
the public_.  He needs a way to _upload_ securely.  If he's using a
*nix desktop, gFTP -> http://www.gftp.org/ is a gui ftp client,
slightly similar to CuteFTP, that supports OpenSSH sftp.  There's
also a 'sftp' command that probably comes with the ssh & scp package
for your distro.
