I thought SFTP was an ftp like command set inside the SSH protocol and that FTPS was the FTP protected by SSL. Our Network gurus keep referring too out SSL protected TN3270 as TELNETS and even insisted on us using port 992 for it since that was set in some RFC.

No.  SFTP is the FTP command set (mostly) over an SSH channel.

Sine Nomine has an FTP-to-SFTP broker, so you can FTP out from CMS, through a Linux guest (so there's no traffic on the wire unencrypted), which turns it into SFTP on the way out.

We can also do SSL-wrapped-FTP brokered to plaintext FTP on the way in, but that requires licensing Glub Tech's Secure FTP Wrapper. It's pretty cheap, though: $250 (for a single IP).
