Eddie,

Please don't hijack threads... If you hit "Reply" and change the subject, a
lot of mail clients (and people) will get upset. Compose a new mail to
LINUX-390@vm.marist.edu and you can ask whatever you need. It's not hard.

Now, about your question... FTP and SFTP are *VERY* different things on the
core. FTP is a strange protocol that uses more ports than it should, opens
reverse connections from server to client (in active mode), does not goes
along very well with some firewalls and nat and transfers everything in
plain text. Not that secure... In the other hand, SFTP is a little like a
FTP transaction encapsulated on a SSH connection. It goes well with
firewalls and nat, uses ssh-channels inside the same tcp/ip connection,
does not opens reverse connections and is encrypted.

You don't need a "SFTP-Proxy". And I never heard that before... If you can
access the destination server using ssh, you can do exactly the same with
SFTP.
