read up on vsftpd, it is pretty simple if you just want a basic server. Google should get you what you need, after you have it set up and if you need some help i can help you more.

went ahead and did a fast google and found this (http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/linux-hn/ftp-server.htm) it has some basic info.

Fedora does come with a ftp server. You can use the System Settings > Add/Remove Applications tool to install it. Servers category, FTP server. Then start it with System Settings > Server Settings > Services.

You will also need to open that port through the firewall. Use System Settings > Security Level and allow FTP.
