Christopher Park commented on FTPSERVER-40:
-------------------------------------------

So I've been looking at the SFTP protocol. It turns out that SFTP is NOT the 
FTP protocol running over SSH. It is a completely separate protocol that only 
shares the letters 'FTP'.

In fact, SFTP is baked into the SSH protocol standard. Perhaps this issue is 
better suited for the SSHD project?

See http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-secsh-filexfer-13 for reference.
