We like to use ftp to copy huge files on a daily basis from server to server
due to its speed rather than regular copy or xcopy ,etc... But would like to
know what needs to be enabled to use FTP . Do I need to start or install any
service in the both the sender and receiver or any one to use FTP?

Also if i would like to control security such that only certain users can be
able to connect to the server using FTP, how can i do so ?

Thanks

Service only needs to run on the receiving server.

As for security and controlling who uses it.. RTFM ! :o)
