Forgive me, but i simply don't understand that statement.  Both SFTP  
and FTPS are  very much alive and well in the real world.  Each has  
it's strengths depending on implementation requirements.  Not everyone  
wants users to have shell access, regardless of how controlled that  
shell may be.

For the owner of this thread:
Yes.  LFTP is the command line client you want to use for FTPS.  For  
the Linux GUI, look at Filezilla.  There are several Windows clients  
available.
