   The FTP server shipped with RHEL3 (vsftpd 1.2) doesn't do SSL yet.
RHEL3 has been updated to 1.2.1, and SSL support was added in 2.0.
You'll either need to update VSFTPd, use a different server, or
upgrade the OS to RHEL4 (which includes vsftpd 2.0).
   If this is a brand new server I'd suggest the OS upgrade.  If it's
an existing system, then look for an updated version of VSFTPd.  It
shouldn't be too hard to rebuild 2.0 to work under RHEL3.

   Once you have an SSL-capable FTP server, you'll need to follow the
instructions that come with it:

ftp://vsftpd.beasts.org/users/cevans/untar/vsftpd-2.0.3/FAQ
"Q) Does vsftpd support SSL / TLS based encryption?
A) Yes, as of v2.0.0, this is supported for the control and data
connections (hurrah). You need a build of vsftpd with this support
enabled, and then you need to activate the ssl_enable setting. NOTE
there are security considerations with this support. Please make sure
to read the ssl_enable section in the vsftpd.conf.5 man page
thoroughly before using."
