For such a simple scenario there is no need for an FTP server.
Just create a tar archive with all the files that need to be moved
and send it over the LAN using netcat.

If x.x.x.16 is the sender and x.x.x.44 is the receiver, run the
following commands:

# on host x.x.x.16 (sender)
nchost=192.168.99.16; ncport=10000; \
  tar -cf - *.mp3 | netcat -n -w 10 -l $nchost $ncport


# on host x.x.x.44 (receiver)
nchost=192.168.99.16; ncport=10000; \
  netcat -n -w 10 $nchost $ncport | tar -xpvf -


Ten seconds after the last byte gets sent the connection is
automatically shut off.
