Are there any good free .Net network libraries? (FTP, SFTP, SSH, etc.)

I'm a bit surprised I haven't found a good open source library for performing common network tasks. There are a few very good commercial libraries, but they're too expensive to use on an open source project.

Anyone know of any?

SSH.NET Library - https://github.com/sshnet/SSH.NET

Inspired by Sharp.SSH, this library is complete rewrite using .NET 4.0, without any third party dependencies and utilizes parallelism as much as possible to allow best performance.

It's been a solid C# implementation of client side SSH.
