For what it's worth, there's an adaptor from the sprint VFS interface 
for IFTPShell, and it works ok for the bits of IFTPShell ftp is using 
and not broken.  It's probably easier to adapt against IFTPShell than 
ISFTPServer.

I guess the most important thing is working FTP. So long as it uses an 
interface for filesystem access, whatever that is, the VFS stuff should 
be able to work in with it.
