FTP is plain-text only. sftp/scp are secure methods of doing
basically the same thing, but require both a client and server - a
standard FTP server can't handle secure connections. scp is, or at
least used to be, distributed with ssh (I think). Or you could set up
an SSH tunnel and then FTP through that.
