First, you need to install a ftp server, to do that run:
Code:
emerge net-ftp/proftpd
Then, to make proftpd start automatically at boot time run:
Code:
rc-update add proftpd default
Now, to start proftpd up manually run:
Code:
/etc/init.d/proftpd start


For more information about configuring proftpd, check out www.proftpd.net
