The former is based on SSH. The latter is based on SSL (PKI, authenticity as well as encryption). FTPS is the more modern/'correct' (for want of a better term) one to use. The two protocols are completely different, so your first task is to figure out what you are going to connect to on the server end before looking at libraries. Sorry, I meant to add, this assumes that when you say secure FTP you really mean a secure variant of FTP in the literal sense. There are other options like WebDAV over HTTP over SSL. -- David Connors | [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> | www.codify.com <http://www.codify.com> Software Engineer Codify Pty Ltd Phone: +61 (7) 3210 6268 | Facsimile: +61 (7) 3210 6269 | Mobile: +61 417 189 363 V-Card: https://www.codify.com/cards/davidconnors <https://www.codify.com/cards/davidconnors> Address Info: https://www.codify.com/contact <https://www.codify.com/contact> Important Notice This email contains information which is confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom it is addressed.
