new to ftp... stupid question, so bear with me

i'm sure the FM has the answer to this, but I dont have a lot of time, so I'm just going to look stupid and ask.

I'm writing an ftp client library (testing against your server), and doing an explicit ssl connection to the server. the command connection works great, but when I open a data connection passively its back to a non ssl connection. when I initiate the data connection is there any way to transfer that over ssl/tls as well? I would assume that if the command connection is using ssl that the data connection would as well. since I'm new to this, (and I'm not looking at the secure ftp rfc's at the moment) is the data connection supposed to use ssl/tls too or is this always going to be plaintext?
