Here's one using a windows machine to your linux server using socks:

Here's a pure linux solution complements of ubuntu:

You can use scp (try man scp) for secure ftp sessions using "ssh".

You can tunnel about any traffic over an ssh connection, try man ssh to get more than you want to know on the subject.
Cheers
