You can trust me, but I'm no expert. The best that I can suggest is for you to
look into using openssh and sftp... Really good encryption, works like
telnet... the sftp part of the above is secure ftp. Uses the same encryption
that openssh does... the best part about ssh is... ALL the handshaking and data
exchange is encrypted.
