[olug] sftp vs. FTPS?

[Jay Swackhamer]

Client/server software for ftps
http://bsdftpd-ssl.sc.ru/


Quoting Jay Hannah <jay at jays.net>:

> We have a vendor who wants us to FTPS files to them daily.
>
> I figured sftp and ftps were the same thing. I assumed they both   
> meant "secure ftp" and that clients would generally be able to talk   
> to servers.
>
> The vendor is telling me that:
> - sftp is a *nix'y thing that uses ssh.
> - FTPS is a Windowsy thing that uses SSL certificates.
>
> Can anyone unconfuse me? Any suggestions for a Linux client for FTPS?
>
> Thanks,
