I know the Mac side well, enabling FTP there is no problem... Its the Linux side I'm shaky on.

on linux you could just use a web browser and point it at your mac using a url like ftp:// ip_address_for_your_mac_from_sharing_preference

You could also enable the Web Server for your Mac, and just drop the files into your Site folder. I personally believe this is more secure than enabling FTP (plain-text passwords???), especially if you are running on a wireless network. Plus the Web Server allows only read only access within the Site folder only... FTP could expose your entire hard drive.

OH ... and the Mac uses sftp not ftp .... duh !
