	Title		: Securing FTP with TLS

This document describes a mechanism that can be used by FTP clients
   and servers to implement security and authentication using the TLS
   protocol defined by [RFC-2246] and the extensions to the FTP protocol
   defined by [RFC-2228].  It describes the subset of the extensions
   which are required and the parameters to be used; discusses some of
   the policy issues that clients and servers will need to take;
   considers some of the implications of those policies and discusses
   some expected behaviours of implementations to allow interoperation.
   This document is intended to provide TLS support for FTP in a similar
   way to that provided for SMTP in [RFC-2487] and HTTP in [RFC-2817].

   That this specification is in accordance with the FTP RFC [RFC-959]
   and relies on the TLS protocol [RFC-2246] and the FTP security
   extensions [RFC-2228].

In the body type:

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
