    Follow this

    Log in as root
    In terminal enter
    Code:
    # service vsftpd start
    Open your firewall (System -> Administration -> Firewall i think) and make sure FTP is checked then click apply.
    Enter the IP of the server into a browser on a different computer (Prefferably on your LAN) and enter the username and password of a user on the system. You will have the same privileges of file access as you would if you were logged on (Dont think you can FTP with root)
    Regards,
