I understand... I was only trying to encrypt our user/pass. I'm not sure how to use SSH for what I'm doing.

I'm reading the contents of the FTP directory and deleting files based on the date (for cleanup purposes only). I'm not sure I can do that with SSH.

FTPAPI does not have support for TLS.   FTP over TLS (or SSL) works poorly, and I strongly discourage its use -- so there is no plan to add it.  Consider using SSH (sftp) instead.

I have several applications that use these utilities... I would like to use a TLS connection.

I tried simply changing FTP_CONN() to use port 443 but there must be more to it.
