Hello,

Any distro will work for your request. You'll just have to install a webserver or an FTP server. (your choice)

Distro: Try CentOS
Servers: Apache (webserver); pure-ftp (FTP server)
Hardware: Any hardware will do as long as it can run the distribution.

There are a lot more servers you can use I just pointed out two.

Cheers,
Srj
