I need to create a way for clients to upload files to a *nix based server. FTP is the logical choice but has too many security flaws.

Ideas?

Does SSHv2 include FTP support? I mean is it part of the SSH, not can I run FTP inside a SSH tunnel.

So do I.. but there is a version 1 and 2. Got it working today, it doesn't use FTP but the PuTTY command line client has a feature for sending files and the OpenSSH server (running on RH 7.2) allows this.

Thanks for the replies.

I thought you were referring to some specfic program, not protocols. Sorry :( At least I got you pointed in some direction ;)
