i am looking for sftp client in c# SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP) i come across http://sourceforge.net/projects/sharpssh http://granados.sourceforge.net/ after exploring i will use them.

while trying to understand the basics. i come across the help text http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FTP_over_SSH#FTP_over_SSH_.28not_SFTP.29 which is confusing .

could some one explain it for me what is difference between sftp and FTP over SSH.

no library seems to give support for "FTP over SSH" if it is different.
