There would be 1 of 3 possible methods (as I see it).

sftp - which is a type of file transfer over an SSH tunnel. It is not really 
FTP as it does not work the same way. Also, the IBM supplied version only works 
with UNIX files, not legacy datasets.

FTPS - which is true ftp over an TLS tunnel.

Most difficult would be to establish a point to point VPN type tunnel to the 
server, then use regular FTP over that tunnel.
