[Fact 10]: For example:ftp://public.ftp-servers.example.com/mydirectory/myfile.txtor:ftp://user001:secretpassword@private.ftp-servers.example.com/mydirectory/myfile.txtMore details on specifying a user name and password may be found in the browsers' documentation, such as, for example, Firefox and Internet Explorer.By default, most web browsers use passive , which bypass the SSH connection, and thus have no confidentiality, integrity protection, etc.Otherwise, it is necessary for the SSH client software to have specific knowledge of the FTP protocol, and monitor and rewrite FTP control channel messages and autonomously open new forwardings for FTP data channels.
