Assuming that you're not just asking how to use ftp, this is more a question involving the interaction of your web server software (which is Apache, by the way) and Frontpage. Answers would be similar, more or less, regardless of which flavor of UNIX you're using. You can check the Apache website (http://www.apache.org) for information on configuring and working with Apache. And you can check the Microsoft support site (http://support.microsoft.com) for information on making Frontpage play nice. The short anwer, however, is that Frontpage plays best with NT servers running IIS, and you have to install Microsoft-developed extensions to UNIX-based webservers like Apache to get the "full featureset" out of Frontpage. And even then, FreeBSD isn't one of the operating systems that MS explictly supports. Here's a hideously long URL that provides you with search results from Microsoft regarding Frontpage and Apache.
