Additionally you have the sftp which is basicly an ftp-alike command but
which works over the ssh2-protocoll. And last time I checked, ssh2 has
recieved a big level of confidence from crypography and security
communities. (ssh2 is basicly ssh1 with a few security improvements)

So far sftp is rarely used, and only available to unix (requires the
ssh2-deamon). The downside is that ssh2 encrypts everything, so even "not
so secret" information is enciphered, which really is useless to an
anonymous ftp, as an example. If CPU cycles are scarce, SSH2 will probably
steal too much CPU power.
