[luau] Secure FTP to RedHat 7.3 box?

Hi Folks!

I'd like to use Dreamweaver's Remote folder facility for working with 
files that are on my RedHat 7.3 server. Dreamweaver is set up so that 
it'll use SSH to connect to the remote server. They even provide links to 
putty.exe and plink.exe. (I've used putty for SSH connections and like it 
very much)

The documentation on the Dreamweaver side gets sketchy at that point, only 
dealing with what has to be done on the client side. They advise "Check 
with your ISP" for server side issues :( Seeing that this is my own server 
I guess that leaves me as the clueless "ISP".

I have very minimal services set up on my machine and FTP by default is 
turned off.

Is there a safe way to open FTP or to open it up only for SSH tunneled 
connections? Has anyone else set their Linux boxes to work with 
Dreamweaver MX?

Thanks in advance,
	Sharky
