I need help; setting up an FTP server

[lexsis]

I need to set up an ftp server (on a computer at school) so I can transfer several large files to my computer at home.

what software should I use to do this and how should I set it up.

thnx.

Do you have permission to access the school network from home? Will this computer at school be on at night? Does it sit behind a firewall or proxy server? Does it have a static IP address? If this is a legit connection much more info is needed and you should be able to come by this info from the school.

yes it will be on all night
