No, ncftp does not support TLS at all. From what I've been able to
tell, its a shaky match between FTPS clients and servers unless both
sides are the same vendor. TLS just adds a layer of potential
incompatibilities to FTP, which is by itself rather flaky.
Have you tried straight FTP? Most sites that offer FTPS also offer FTP
as well.
