you want to make an ftp server, or just look though ftp sites from the command line?

for browsing, type ftp <server>

i would tell you about server, but have yet to get mine going =\

btw, you have to edit your /etd/ftpaccess and /etc/ftpusers

For ftp server,

apt-get install ftpd

or one of the other ftp servers. The installation will also start the server for you and that should get the basic server working.

Hope this helps
