FTP server

For kicks, I've decided to dabble in making my own FTP server. I'm using serv-u corporate. I have two questions.

1) What are some basic security measures I should take? I'm running it on port 28 instead of 21, and I set passive ports from 2000-2010 (no clue why, but the website told me to).

2) Will Sygate act up every time an outside machine tries to connect? If so, can I fix that? And will letting people through destroy the practicality of a firewall on that port?

Yeah, I'm another dangerous n00b with an internet connection. Out of my way before I'm h4x0red.
