Humm... that's a bit difficult. There are easier solution:
1) Get your users to learn and usr SCP :) (not likely :))
2) Get a better FTP Server. There are better FTP servers out there other than
Wu-FTPD :). Try Pro-FTPD
3) SSH server to forward the FTP port (21). This will pass the "command" channel of
FTP ie the username
and password part of FTP process to SSH. But all other command like actual files
transfers etc. will not
be encrypted. And as I recall the FTP clients will have to always use passive mode? or
the other one I can't
remember.
4) Run SSL on your server. This way you can just let your user use your PHP scripts to
upload files
Otherwise, it'll be pretty difficult to get PHP to work with SSH.
