Need help with FTP server
Well I would like to have my own FTP, i tried to do it myself but not too sure on what im doing. I would like to be able to put images and all sorts of stuff so I can upload it to my site, can someone give me a basic rundown of what i need to do, what prog to use, etc. Or send me a link to a good tut. on it?
Thanks

Are you trying to install an FTP server?
Are you trying to use an FTP client?
What operating system are you dealing with?

An FTP server is an application on the server that allows someone using an FTP client to access the server.
FTP client is on your personal computer.
FTP server is on your site's server.

Read this post by Statica over at PCMech. It throughly covers ftp server.
It sounds like all you need is a ftp client like CuteFTP or WSFTP. You would need a server if you wanted to share files with others.

To upload files to your site, use a FTP Client.
FileZilla is a Free FTP Server+Client. http://filezilla.sourceforge.net/
