Sure you can, where do you get that idea?
It's like saying that you need a Web browser to set up a Web server. You don't. |

But without a client you can`t set up a server. |

He was asking for a server, not a client  |

I'll tell ya all things step by step, what you need to do.
1. Get a good FTP Tool, I prefer FlashFXP. It's a trial but the best IMO.
2. Know your IP or the host where the files should be uploaded on.
3. Set permissions: FlashFXP does this for you, but if you have another program, which can't do that automatically then use "ASCII Mode" for files and "Binary Mode" for images.
4. Upload them and have fun! 
If you need help, just ask. |

FileZilla is a nice server for Windows, but it's still incomplete. I'd have to say that the best server for FTP is ProFTPd, I'm sure there's a port to Windows (non-Cygwin), but I can't find it. |

yeah, the same one I run off of my computer (for the uninformed, it's so I can work on shit elsewhere)

Pretty damn good client, too. |

4) software that will manage the FTP
The key part of the server is the software that monitors the port in which people connect to server. As for what software, it seems you wil have to pay for the software. I found a list here
isn't there any free software? |

how would I set up a FTP server (one of my bro's wanted me to find out)?
I'd really want this to be possible. |
