Oh. 

I thought you were switching contexts. Now I see. And thanks to Kirk for

A file transfer protocol that isn't FTP is more than a little confusing.

FTP under TLS
SSH packet file mover 
FTP under SSH 

But SSH also can be used for other things, like telnet, web service,
etc, right? 

My head hurts :-)
