IIS6 does not support SFTP or FTPS. IIS7 reportedly will at some point.

SFTP requires a specific client that will support SFTP (like PuTTY). Using FTPS (FTP with SSL) is more widely supported. You will need to setup Certificate Services so you can issue your own security certificate or you will need to purchase a certificate.
