do you have server in some hosting house or you privatly whant
to host with private internet connection?

if you whant to host a ftp server with private internet connection
you need to have a good upload speed (download is not that mutch
importent for server usage, but upload).

most private internet connections have good download speed
but very slow upload speed.
the providers limit this upload speed specialy to keep customers
from hosting own file servers.

for example, if i would like to make a server from my home connection,
user would only be able to download with very slow 17kbits.
a flashfile with lets say 100 mb would take many hours to be downloaded.

next problem: when 1 or 2,3 or more users download at same time,
it gets divided in speed and if you whant to just browse something
with your internet, you have very very slow speed and are unable
to use your own internet.

i think a own ftp server is only a good idea if you have the right
internet connection with enugh upload speed, and also the traffik
is importent even if your contract say it is unlimited, in real it is
fair use, so if you get all the time over this fair use limit, you
can be kicked from your internet provider.


about security:
host your ftp server only with puplic files, use own server
for ftp and not your working pc with sensible data on your hdd.

usualy ftp programs have all security settings in the program.
you can set presmissions for every file and folders, you can
make accounts for personal accounts and groups, you can
limit speed for every account you can set access writes and
you can alow uploads in a special upload folder.
basically you get set everything you whant.

but as posted before, a website with autoindex is simpler
for the users, but for this you need to make a web server
and you need to keep an eay on the php.ini
one wrong setting can open your system and as example:
a user can download your php files instead of executing it.

best is, you search for tutorials via google, there are many
also with good php.ini file.

i think, more secure is via ftp, there are not so mutch thinks
you can do wrong.
