Connecting to sFTP from within an iOS App

I'm new to Objective C and Xcode, but was wondering how to connect to a SFTP within my application. I've successfully connected to FTPs before, but was hoping to keep more secure in the future. When connecting with a regular computer you need a special SFTP client, so I wasn't sure what steps I'd have to take to connect within an iOS App.

Also, what are your opinions of SSH FTPs Vs. SFTPs?

There are plenty of open source libraries like NMSSH or DLSFTPClient. Please, don't use proprietary components, support open source.

Your best bet is to download a library and put that into your app. I would recommend Chilkat. He has wrote a lot of stuff for sftp.

Good luck.
