Using ssh for ftp to master

[Bob Hilliard <hilliard@flinet.com>]

     I have setup and configured ssh, and installed my identity.pub
file in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on master.  I execute "ssh-agent bash"
to start a shell under ssh, then "ssh-add", which asks for my
passphrase.

     I can then run "ssh master.debian.org" and am logged in on master
without giving my password over the net.

     Is this the proper way to use ssh from a console? 

     How can I use ftp over ssh?  I have tried executing a normal ftp
command from the ssh-agent shell, but I am asked to login just as if I
was not using ssh.

Bob
