Just a quick answer - sftp is the service in question. The ssh daemon
allows you to run subservers - look in the config for something like:
Subsystem sftp /usr/lib/sftp-server
You can then use the 'sftp' command to connect to the server. sftp
doesn't use a port of it's own - it effectivly logs you in via SSH, then
does file transfers over the ssh link. I'm not sure about windows clients
for sftp. I think Putty may support it. Not sure about graphical clients
- basically you should be able to find everything you need to know by
searching the web.
