You could try ftpd or proftpd or wu-ftpd or tftpd.  I have used
proftpd and it works.  But other than that I dont use any of them much
so I dont really have any recommendations but I am sure they all get
the job done.

To install one of those, just:

sudo apt-get install [package name from above]

You might want to look them up online to see if there's something
about one that appeals to you more than the others.
