  Of course, but sometimes, "you" are the sysadmin (it's like when
windows say to me "ask to your sysadmin" (and it is my home
computer...). We don't know if the ftp is for a company, or for personal
purposes... Usually I think as if we are talking about a person needing
to do something, and not about a company needing to hire somebody to do
something (in that case, it should be just matter to hire the right person).

  Wait... it seems I have been very wrong about the subject... does it
means I don't need to install certificates to enable sftp? I know this
is turning off-topic, so, can you please give some source of info to
learn how to make sftp work? I already searched in wikipedia, and found
sftp can stand for "ftp over ssh" or "SSH file transfer protocol", and
that those are 2 different concepts...
