Kerberos is a trusted third party authentication system.  This
means that there must be a third party in common which both the
client (end user) and the server (ftp server) trust.

I suggest you start by reading some of the tutorials about the
Kerberos protocol so you will understand how it works:

   http://web.mit.edu/kerberos/papers.html

Then you can go about establishing or finding a realm which is
willing to trust your FTP Service and that hosts it along with
all of your expected clients.
