It's not clear whether you're talking about FTP over SSL or sftp (the
protocol for transferring files over SSH that has a command line
client similar to an FTP client.)

Either way, I don't think there's a way to have one control connection
with FTP and multiple data connections. With sftp maybe "master mode"
will do what you want. But I suspect you are talking about FTP and
not sftp.
