+ Please, how to use ssh with ange-ftp to encrypt the password exchange
+ or all the session.
I'm not familiar with ange-ftp itself, but this is how I do it with normal
ftp -- it should work the same.
The general format is:
machine% ssh -L listen-port:host:port
or
machine% ssh -R listen-port:host:port
Example: We're on a machine called 'home', from which you wish to ftp,
and a machine called 'home' to which you wish to ftp.
First, in one window, you'd run the following:
% ssh -L XXXXX:127.0.0.1:21 work
where XXXXX is some random high port number. Once the remote-login to
work is established, on the home machine, you'd
home% ftp localhost XXXXX
Now the ftp command channel (commands, username & passwords, etc) will
be sent via the ssh client (on home) to the sshd (at work) and sent to the
host:port specified (in this case, localhost {ie work} on port 21).
Note: actual data transfers will not be encrypted in this way, just the
command channel.
Also, I'd use the -v argument for all the ssh commands while you test this
out -- it can be most informative. Also, you can see what channels are being
sent over by getting into escape mode ('~' unless otherwise changed)
and hitting # (list forwarded connections).
