I'm relatively clueless when it comes to web hosting/servers/ftp info.
But I'm eager to set up a Home FTP Server and get clued up on these things.

I found this article on LifeHacker on how to do it for PCs...
http://www.lifehacker.com/software/...rver-130806.php

Can anybody point me in the direction of something similar but for Macs?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here is one option:

For other options, simply Google search "mac os x ftp server"

Just turn on FTP access in Preferences:Sharing --- those bitching are way too far up their own @sses for their own good.
