net/ftp with ssl?

[Kirk Haines]

I have a program that needs to interact with an FTP server that only talks FTP
over ssl. I'm currently having the software drive an external FTP client
that is SSL enabled, but I'm looking at reworking the software, and would
like to be able to have it work without having to drive an external FTP
program.

Can I get net/ftp to work with a site that requires an SSL connection? How?


Thanks,
