Small Distro For NFS


I'm looking for a small linux distro that can be installed and a system and that system used as a network file system server, so that people can perhaps mount windows drives, using this server. A gui would be nice but not needed, also it would be nice to be able connect to it for a terminal screen.

sounds like just about any distro would work for this, a distro I recomend is Vector linux, if you choose not to install X windows (one of very few install choices) it only takes up around 150 to 200 mb.

it doesnt come with all the tools I like but since its compatable with most slackware packages (I use 9.1) you just go to a slackware mirror and find what your missing.
