Komodo uses ssl to provide FTPS support (FTP over SSL), using the Python 
ssl socket library. From memory, I think there were problems trying to 
get FTPS to work on earlier versions of python (earlier than Python 2.4) 
and also a few problems working with Python 2.4 itself.

This code might provide some help (you can search for FTPS):
