No, I don't think so. But you do have to have an SSL certificate, and apache configured with the ssl module.
Then again, I've never used SSL before.

You can use SSL with the FTP functions I think, and you can also open sockets with SSL or TLS encryption enabled:
Code: Select all
$sock = fsockopen("ssl://servername", $port, $errno, $errstr);

I would probably use the
ssh extension and use the ssh2_recv and ssh2_send methods.. (
As you'll see in the documentation, it's quite a powerful extension and you might choose a different option (eg: ssh2_sftp))
