      A big question, of course, is why FTP?

        Oh of critical importance is OS independence Browser based access.

          All included when you say FTP.

            I think what you are missing here is that FTP is FTP. Just like HTTP, SSH or SMTP are just protocols. That's all that they are. No matter what platform serves them, any client that talks that language can consume them. The server does not determine the features, the protocol does.

              There are several FTP servers that are very common on Linux. I would use the default one for whatever distro you want to use.

                  That's what you would want to use as a client for FTP. Much more powerful than using a web browser in most cases. Especially if you want to upload too.

                      That's a desktop application "server" and not meant for production use. If you are on Windows I would stick with IIS. On Linux, you have lots of built in FTP options.

                        So any recommendations, as it appears I actually need an HTTP File server with an Easy to Use Web front (for end users).

                          OwnCloud or Pydio may fit the bill in that case.

                            Those would be my first thoughts. You can just use WebDAV too, like SharePoint does.

                              Alfresco would do it too.

                                What about a WordPress Uploader Plugin?

                                            Would not take too much to build a custom solution too, maybe in PHP.
