Secure replacement for FTP (other then SSH)

[Franki <franki@htmlfixit.com>]

Hi guys,

I've been looking to replace as many un-encrypted connections to my 
boxes as possible, I've replaced pop3 and imap with their ssl equiv.. 
and allow only SSH access.

The problem with SSH, is that it ends up giving people terminal access 
as part of the deal, and also that it doesn't give me the ability to 
lock people into their home directory as does FTP (with something like 
ProFTP server end.)

Basically the only answer I've found so far, is to setup each user 
chroot in their own home directories, but thats time consuming and makes 
server updates and upgrades more difficult..

Is there such a thing as SSL protected FTP and is it widely supported by 
FTP clients? can any of the current crop of FTP servers on offer do it 
out of the box with only config changes? Some FTP servers allow you lock 
users into specific directories, so if they supported encryption, I'd 
have my answer.

I'd appreciate any info on how you guys lock users into their own little 
space, as searching for info on the net for variants of secure  FTP or 
encrypted FTP just return allot of results for SFTP and SSH...

kindest regards

Franki
