Somebody made a policy that 'we use sftp now instead of ftp'. I have recommended we use scp because I can't for the life of me think of a *good* reason to use sftp and not scp.

I am not very familiar with the use of FTP, and trying to run it I found out that standard "ftp" is not working" but "sftp" is.
If sftp is allowed will that block ftp ? and if so where is this set ?
I thought there is no relationship, is that right ?
If so look here:

I can put ftp command in shell script together with the password using

cvtbatch
CVTBATCH(8) InterNetNews Documentation CVTBATCH(8)
NAME
cvtbatch - Convert Usenet batch files to INN format
SYNOPSIS
cvtbatch [-w items]
DESCRIPTION
cvtbatch reads standard input as a sequence of lines, converts each line, and writes it to standard output. It is used to convert simple
batch files that contain just the storage API token of an article to INN batch files that contain additional information about each
article.
Each line is taken as a storage API token indicating a Usenet article. Only the first word of each line is parsed; anything following
whitespace is ignored. Lines not starting with a valid token are also silently ignored.
If the input file consists of a series of message-IDs, then use grephistory with the -s flag piped into cvtbatch.
OPTIONS
-w items
The -w flag specifies how each output line should be written. The items for this flag should be chosen from the "W" flag items as
specified in newsfeeds(5). They may be chosen from the following set:
b Size of the article in bytes.
f Storage API token of the article (same as "n").
m Article message-ID.
n Storage API token of the article.
t Arrival time of the article as seconds since epoch.
The default is "nm", that is to say the storage API token followed by the message-ID of the article.
