    But if someone is already connected to a port then how can I connect ?

      No it will not corrupt. Each connection to the FTP daemon is unique because of different source ports.

          The netcat example presented by Motoma is typically used for network disk (OS) cloning/imaging. For your questoin, he is best position to answer. With regard to your original question about which is faster FTP or SSH. I can only say based on my experience, they are quite the same and i am talking about using passwords. (SSH can also use public keys). If SSH is using public keys, it may be a bit slower in the authentication part, but after that the data transfer speed depends on the link.

            With my regards
            Well, AFAIK the SFTP does not means for "Secured FTP" but rather "SSH File Transfer Protocol" and moreover does have nothing common with FTP. It's completely different protocol. On the other hand the FTPS is FTP over SSL channel (similar to HTTPS which is HTTP over SSL channel).

                You should start your own thread for this.
                Have you Googled those terms?
