Thanks for your help. You are correct in that in this case it would be Windows clients connecting to a Linux server. If I produce anything useful in the future regarding this, I'll let you know.

That's why we specify FTP SSL, and not FTPS to clearly identify what is offered by ICS. There is also FTP over SSH, which is really a UNIX thing where SSH is used for to provide a secure shell for numerous protocols. So it's not really an FTP protocol as such, there are no SSH related FTP commands. But it's simple for UNIX systems since their ancient FTP clients and servers can be used securely without modification. The major disadvantage of SSH is no public certificates, so any encryption keys need to be privately arranged. There are no plans to support SSH with ICS, but you can configure it yourself using a Windows SSH program, forget the name off hand.
