AFAIK, sftp connects just like ssh and has the same functionality
as ftp once connected. If you know the name and path of the
file(s) you which up/download, you can use scp.
$ sftp jeff@remote_ssh_server
password: *******
sftp>
...now use normal ftp commands.
Make sure you can connect using ssh first.
