Please describe your use case more fully.

I would like to access my files from outside my local network.

You will need an sftp client program running on the device you wish to use for remote access. There are various programs available such as FileZilla, WinSCP, the sftp command line program for Linux, and some for phones too.
OMV will support sftp transfers by default. However if you want a more restrictive setup use the OMV SFTP Plugin to set up user jails.

sftp transfers by default? i can only see FTP on the services tabs .....and is what i currently use to access my files.,how do i enable sftp? thanx
-
The ssh service allows sftp by default since sftp uses ssh. You can also install the sftp to provide a second sftp-only port that has the ability to jail off the files.

ssh is enabled by default. You do that from the ssh tab in the OMV web interface. You have never logged into your server before using something like putty?

yes i did use putty, but i want to use my ftp/sftp client to access my files from outside the local network. i need to create a key i believe?

You can use a key or password unless you disable passwords. You just have to expose the ssh port to the internet from your router. You will need to google how to do that for your specific router.
