Subject: [9fans] Secure ftp Again
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 31c1df4a-ead0-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

A couple of weeks ago, I posted saying that I couldn't connect
to an ftp server. I got the message "No non-SSL connections
allowed" (Or something like that). I said that I had looked at
ssl(3), but couldn't see how to use it.

Someone (Russ Cox???. I forget now.) replied saying that I 
probably needed to be looking at tls and pushtls. Well, I have.
I hate to be a bonehead about this, but I still don't see how
to make use of these things. The tips pages have nice things
for ordinary users like mounting cds and using cdfs. Would
anyone be kind enough to walk me through making secure
ftp connections in a `tip o' the day' sort of way.

Thanks.

Greg
