SFTP is a really good idea, and supported by most graphical "FTP"
clients. An FTP server will also work, but FTP-over-SSL is not quite
universally supported.
Otherwise, a simple website should work? I'm sure someone's written
software for that (if all else fails, I'm pretty certain that Horde
includes such functionality, but it's massively overkill.)
If you're willing to drop the "through an OpenBSD server" part, I've
heard very good things about Dropbox. (Note that there is no native
OpenBSD client; but the web interface should work, though.)
