First, you should not have used Reply option to start new thread, but
what is done is done.
Next, I do not understand what you actually want.
From ProFTPD site:
"By contrast, SFTP refers to "Secure File Transfer Protocol", and is not
related to FTP in any way. SFTP is based on the SSH2 protocol, which
uses binary encoding of messages over a secure channel. Unlike FTP, SSH2
only uses a single TCP connection, and multiplexes multiple transfers or
"channels" over that single connection. For this reason, many sites
prefer SFTP to FTPS for secure transfer of data. "
So you just need Midnight Commander of Krusader (with sshfs added I
think) for intermittent access to filesystem via SSH, and if you use
Windows there is "WinSCP" SFTP client.
As server, ANY Linux box with allowed SSH connections will do.
If you want automounting of SFTP (Remote SSH) filesystem, follow
