install vsftp (there are many other ftps servers avaliable) and your configuration for vsftpd will end up in /etc/vsftpd/vsftpd.conf . .Now put all your files in a folder and chmod 740 all your files. start your ftp server . give ftp user account and password information for your client to download. little googling will let to know about vsftpd.conf .I hope this will give you some insight.

Please mention your Linux distro!!
