==============================
True that. I agree. I would rather ssh and I do.
However many people want or need ssh and want it encrypted.
They are just gonna have to do their own thing and figure it out on 
their end.
This is all I am gonna do to work on it. It works.

I have no idea why ftp makes it like that. That whole range of ips it needs.
Without adding those ips the ssl connection will die and get lost.

I agree it is a mess. And 5 hours later I am not gonna go any further.
If they are behind something, they better learn about scp or putty... :)
