Hi,
I have some questions about FTP Utilities like NX FTP 4.42 and Wise FTP 3.0.22
Can we use these softwares to make our Computer FTP server or they are used for other purposes?
There are 2 kinds of "FTP Utilities" - clients and servers. Wise is a client and NX is just a front end for the standard Unix FTP command line client.

So NX is not a Server FTP, can I use these 2 utilities to make my new system as FTP client? Is it necessary that only FTP client can access FTP Server , not a normal client?
You need FTP Server software to have a FTP Server..........and you use a FTP Client to access a FTP Server to upload and download files. Windows has a builtin very basic command line ftp client. I believe that you can configure IIS to be a ftp server. There are plenty of 3rd party solutions - a few are free.
