Hi all. I've been asked to help out a small non-profit in setting up a
little network in their new offices. The network isn't going to be
anything intense, just a small server that will act as a repository
for their files (at the moment they each keep a copy of the file...it
makes versioning a nightmare) and possibly some printer sharing.

Cost is of course an issue, otherwise I'd just recommend buying one of
the all in one server boxes available. There are a number of slightly
older computers available, so I'm thinking about the possibility of
making a Linux based box that took care of their needs.

Here's the part that I'm stumbling at: there will be a mix of Windows
and Mac users at the office. I can find howtos on how to make a
Windows file server using Samba, but I have no idea how OSX does file
sharing. Does anyone know of a Linux distribution that's tailored
towards doing file and print sharing? Something like the ones that are
tailored to be routers would be ideal.

Thanks!

Josh
