The basic situation is that I am using FileZilla as an FTP server, which does not support SFTP currently. I would like to know if there is some way to set up something with SSH so that a client would connect to the SSH server and then the SSH server would run like a proxy on port 22 and tunnel all the traffic through to PORT 21 on FileZilla. Perhaps this is a standard feature of SSH and I just am not understanding the documentation that I have read. I have also asked people about this and I always get the response of "use Putty to set up a tunnel" which is great, but that only works from the client side to a server that already supports SSH.
The setup is where the client supports SSH but the server does not and SSH acts as a proxy so the traffic is encrypted.
