http://tinyurl.com/7hhaag7 from Jeff's comments is the best way I can
answer your question.
Not FTP or FTPs, and yes using username/password. everything is encrypted.
I would expect psftp from Putty would work on a windws box as well as
/usr/bin/sftp from my debian box.
In my offer, I mean to say, you can use something other than openssh
server if you have good reason.
