Can’t you just tick the box to enable the FTP feature of the Mac OSX and then setup groups / users to gather that information you require?
Or possibly the OSX server will do the same, it’s 25 dollars I think from the app store. It just takes some configuration.

Thanks, $40 might be in budget. I want to creat groups, monitor uploads, and some other tasks. I'll check this $40 package and see if it flies.

Not sure what you need to do that the ftp server can't. Note that robust does not mean simple/easy. You can google around for tutorials but they basically have you use terminal to run: sudo -s launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist which fires it up and sets it to load on bootup. To stop just change load to unload in the same command. They you should be able to ftp to your mac using yourname@yourmachine_address Another path is to just upgrade to OSX Server. While it's pretty much the same things as regular OSX under the hood, they provide tools to configure all that goodness and I'm told you can just upgrade over top of the regular OSX. Apple charges $20 for OSX server. http://www.apple.com/osx/server/ There is also CrushFTP but that's also $40: http://www.crushftp.com/index.html CB On 2/11/16 11:46 AM, erik burggraaf wrote: Hi, Is there any solution equivalent to filezilla server for mac OS? I know that the mac has a simple file server built in, but I'm looking for something more robust.
