This is an naonymous ftp server connected to different machines with different OS. People connect from different places.I tested the connection to this server from a client which is not having TLS support. I donot see the password in text mode. So that works. I just want to confrim that the files are transfering in encrypted mode. So it is necessary to test this with some sw.

Does the client you use also have TLS support? Try command logging from the client. I haven't heard much about FTP over TLS, but I'd imagine clients would make independent choices on encryption of the control connection and the data connection. Your best bet in that case is to use something like Ethereal on a text file. Why is it that you have to use FTP when scp or rsync guarantee you encrypted transfers?
