Details about SSH instalation and setup on iSeries can be found here. http://www-03.ibm.com/servers/enable/site/porting/tools/openssh.htmlSSH can increase your iSeries security, but unfortunately it can also significantly decrease it - depending on the implementation. An SSH client is harmless, but an SSH server with a default configuration is faulty. Read my recent posting in the security400 list.

SFTP (The FTP-like interface to SSH) is also available on i5/OS, but it's a separate licpgm you have to order from IBM. It runs under PASE, not as a native CL command. That can make it a little more confusing for someone with a System i background because they're not used to working with Unix commands. SFTP (and SSH in general) is extremely popular on Unix systems. Security-wise, they're both very well done. I don't think one is signifncantly more secure than the other.
