Commons Net : FTP over SSL and yes I have read the archive :)

Hi, I need to implement FTP over SSL or ideally use an existing library if
someone can point me out to some package they know.

>From the archive there was only one post I could find regarding how to
implement this, something having to do with using J2SE1.4 which we are using
and implementing the ...commons.net.SocketFactory, etc ,etc and calling a
setSocketFactory. Can anyone provide any pointers on whether this is
sufficient. I am quite worried about handshaking as well. Sample code would
obviously be the most useful.

Thanks for your time.

Roger

Let me butt in a second:

There is an FTP extension whereby you can have the FTP control
channel and/or the FTP data channel on top of TLS. This is commonly
called 'AUTH TLS', i.e. when the client connects, it asks 'AUTH TLS' and
the data channel is TLS-ed by the server.

For more details: http://www.ford-hutchinson.com/~fh-1-pfh/ftps-ext.html

Could you explain to me what you mean by "ftp over SSL"?

I am familiar with SFTP, and with FTP over an SSH tunnel.
And https, which is http over ssl.

But ftp over SSL? 

Thanks,
