Secure FTP Client that Logs well
Folks
I am on a quest....
I am looking for a lightweight FTP client capable of FTPS and or SFTP that has good audit and logging capabilities without requiring a central server component. My platforms are Linux, Solaris, AIX, and Windows Server.
The kicker is I have found things that meet the requirements but not without a server. My management wants to do this with the logs local to the FTP client box. The logs need to be detailed on who and what was sent with source and destination indicated, probably detailed command listing to.
Anybody seen anything like this. Or if you looked and found this to be a Unicorn let me know that too. Thanks in advance.

ftp(4) File Formats ftp(4)
NAME
ftp - FTP client configuration file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/default/ftp
DESCRIPTION
Use the ftp file to configure the behavior of the FTP client. Lines that begin with a hash symbol ("# ") are treated as comment lines and
are ignored.
Behavior Directives
The ftp file supports the following behavior directives:
FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST=yes | no
The ls command of the ftp client sends an NLST to the FTP Server by default. Several non-Solaris clients send LIST instead. In order to
make the Solaris ftp client send LIST when the ls command is issued, set FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST to no. The value of FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST is yes
by default.
If the user sets a value for FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST in the user's environment, this value will override any FTP_LS_SENDS_NLST directive that is
specified in /etc/default/ftp.
