Hi, If you need a good and secure ftp server, try proftpd (www.proftpd.net). If you need a HTTP server, I recommend you apache (www.apache.org). And yes, I think OpenBSD/FreeBSD are both a good choice as OS (if you can do that, use a machine as HTTP server and use another machine as FTP server). Also, apply a security checklist at OS level.
In fact, if you can use SCP or SFTP as your ftp client and SSH as your server, you can also to avoid eavesdropping.
