1. Install TeraTerm SSH or putty or some decent Windows SSH software.
Do the Windows equiv of:
ssh -L 1500:
ftp.thelinuxhosttoget.to:21 thelinuxhosttoget.to
This will create the encrypted session directly to the box you are
going to ftp from/to.
2. Use PASV for ftp and set this up in Windows
( don't know the Win point and click procedure )
3. on the Windows machine ftp to localhost port 1500
and you are all set.
Or on the linux host do:
ssh -R 21:the windowsbox:1500 some_secure_SSH_machine_inside_your_local_LAN
The do steps #2 and #3.
Have fun.
