No sane distro would have just that. Sorry.

Just pick a distro that lets you install the components you want and just install those. Though I generally install sshd on all my machines for remote access.

I have never heard of a distro that provides just that. You can obviously choose not to install the networking stuff that you don't need.

It's easy enough to either choose to not install the stuff or to remove them.
