    Would that be "ftps://..."?

@ Charles

I have the same (or perhaps similar) question. If using

sftp://username:password@mydomain/sompath/somefile.ext

is the user name and password "sniffable"  

I am under the impression it is not as SFTP encrypts *before* sending out the pipe.  

Is that understanding correct?
