RE: sftp vs ftp with ssl

Trond,

I believe if you have port 22 open for SSH you should be ok.  I use
OpenSSH sftp and don't need to do anything special and vsftpd for
regular ftp since it provide chroot option.

Subject: sftp vs ftp with ssl

Hi list,
I've been trying to get up an secure ftp server on linux platform,
pureftpd.
This utillity support both sftp and ftp tls/ssl. Is there anyone who has
any experiance with secure ftp servers on any platforms? any
suggestions?
or pointers? Im not sure how firewalls will react on these two types,
regarding
ports etc?
