Seriously, screw NASlite ... look at http://nas.darma.com which is much muc=
h
better, you can get a free version too - but:

"*Your free evaluation copy of the Darma NAS OS Small Business Edition
is
fully functional but is limited to 2 connected SMB/CIFS network clients per
share. Ideal for small networks!"

It's installable on CF too if you want... personally I'd build my own box,
install SAMBA and be done with it... it's not that difficult...=20
