I got a extra 800mhz intel with a 10/100 NIC lying around and i wanted to use it "only" for the network's fileserver. (not for a website host.. not for a dedicaded server..... only a dedicaded "Private Network access only" fileserver)
Is there an o/s or so that can make the computer a complete file server without having extra crap on it. (like if i use windows and share the whole hd on that... well there's alot of wasted space cause i'm never going to actually use that computer for anything else.
Any linux o/ses out there that are only ment for private network fileservers?
Basicly.. i dont want it to have internet access.. only network access so all my network computers can store and edit files on it's completely shared hd.
