We’ve covered a lot about FreeNAS in the past few days, some of it pretty complex. Today is your opportunity to relax. We are going to perform the easiest service setup and configuration yet. Once we are done, you will have a fully operational FTP server running on your FreeNAS system.
Making FTP Services Available
To begin, click on FTP under the Services menu.
This will present you with the FTP options page.
The first thing you need to do is enable the FTP service. Do this by checking off the 
check box in the top right corner. This will activate all of the options.
Click on the 
button to activate the FTP service.
That’s it! Really! You are done! You can now connect in to your FreeNAS server from any FTP client such as FileZilla or the build in command line FTP client to access all of the disks on FreeNAS.

Hi
I hope you see this comment, but realy, enabling it does not work out of the box. I have an error saying “error 1″ and that is all!??
No help nothing and I have done no settings but to start the service, so the service is not started I have no FTP connectivity in my network, this is too bad since I realy need it, so if anyone have seen the “error 1″ error, please let me know,
thanks
Regards

proftpd can´t resolv your hostname.
I added a new hostname under system/network.
