This is probably more of a -users list question, but anyway...

Setting up to download transaction histories is covered in:
http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Setting_up_OFXDirectConnect_in_GnuCash_2

You will not be able to transfer money with OFX in gnucash. There are no 
publicly available test servers for OFX. So no one has written any open 
source software to access the transfer money/pay bills portions of the 
ofx spec.
