Hi there,

Has anyone ever tried doing FTP over SSL using Java? Any commercial
products? (i'm an optimist ;-)

I can't find a trace of it on the web, which is making me wonder if it is
just a dumb idea?

The only SSL capable FTP client I've been able to track down is from SSLeay
(not java), and that looked like it was a bit of an experiment...

Any pointers appreciated!

Cheers
