You could also play with the FTP server built into OSX. To start it, from the terminal do:

sudo -s launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ftp.plist

Then the users you already have can ftp to your box using the same credentials. If you want to set up anonymous FTP you'll have to do some config file editing. Here's a page that talks about how to do that:

If you want to turn the ftp server off you use the same terminal command but change the word "load" to "unload".

Hi,

OS X Server has been around since the dawn of OS X. It used to be more enterprise oriented and be considerably more costly, but now is simply $20 or equivalent depending on your local currency. It’s quite easy to set up and fairly easy to manage. You can implement a basic server components without much fuss although more advanced features take more network and server administration know how.

HTH.

I’ve never heard of this one. Is there period or just straight out pay first?

I also have a ftp server, but I run it from windows. I’d love to move it over to the mac.

Hi,

There’s always OS X Server. Probably a little overkill if all you are looking for is an FTP server but for $20 in the AppStore, you have an FTP server and much more, and accessible too.

Hello all!
I am trying to create an FTP server, and I wonder if somebody know an app I could use to create it in my mac in an accesible way? Or any other ideas to accomplish this purpose? Thanks so much for your help!
Best
