I know I can do this with an ssh login using a client such as CoreFTP. However, I desire to do it with something like vsftpd where I can restrict users to their home directories. My basic concern is I do not want the user login and password sent in the clear, which is the case when using port 21/20. It seems like it is possible, but it is not clear from the documentation how exactly to do this.
