It is a remote filesystem access protocol - philosophically rather like NFS, though the details are totally different - run over an SSH-secured connection. There _is_ a version of FTP secured by TLS/SSL/whatever-it's-called-this-week, but that's FTPS, not sftp. So make sure you know whether you want FTP, FTPS, sftp, or whether more than one of those would do for your use case. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
