Yes your friends will need FTB as well to join the server. They will need the exact same mods and configs, otherwise they won't be able to connect.
Have you port forwarded your server? Not doing that will prevent people from being able to connect. Also, be aware that port forwarding opens up your network to hackers, so I suggest making the server whitelisted and only giving the IP to friends.

So it's remote hosted? Good, safer that way.
Yes, they need the same pack, and the same pack version to join. If you whitelisted the server, put in the server console /whitelist add (name of player)

There are no FTB packs for 1.7. I suggest using 1.6.4, since all the mods and Forge for 1.7 is in early development and may not be stable at all.
