Navigate and transfer files via FTP and FTPS Since SFTP and SSH are usually command line based, that’s actually the subject of another article, so we’ll keep things simple here and stick with FTP and FTPS. Nevertheless, OS X also includes a native SFTP client, which can be accessed from the terminal by typing “sftp username host” on the command line. FTPS connections are directly supported by OS X’s built-in FTP functions, while SFTP via SSH cannot be accessed via the same “Connect to Server” menu. Something to keep in mind is that FTPS and SFTP are two different protocols FTPS is FTP with a secure SSL layer, while SFTP uses SSH (yes, the same protocol that SSH servers have adopted remotely in OS X).
