Could I set up a ftp server and give access to specific people(friends) to download anything off my pc I allow them to?
And would this use up local cap if the person is downloading from a SA ip?
 
firstly install filezilla ftp server, it's very easy. Then get yourself a dynamic ip address. Configure your router with the dyndns, set up the ftp server and away you go.

secondly it will use up your international cap first if you still have cap left.
 
Yes. Serv-U FTP. On the cap - it will take off from whichever account they are using to download from your server (Telkom will use the international first before using local). You can give them your new IP Address whenever it changes, or else you need to use dyndns.org.
Infact, just install HFS file server (HTTP based). It's a standalone EXE and it's freeware, with options to add user accounts and passwords. Great little app. Download it here -> http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/
