Sure.    And using SAMBA package, it can appear as a windows file server.

Very Well, 

1. For SMB Network you can use samba as fileserver.

2. for unix/linux based NFS share you can export files natively if you have installed nfs-server related packages. 

3. for AFP [ AppleTalk ] you can use netatalk to configure the file and print shares. 

Hope that answers.

You can use VSFTPD as File server.

If you want to access it from Windows then use Samba:

Yes you can use redhat OS as a file server by installing the appropriate package vsftpd-*.rpm and configure iptables to autorize access from external .

yum install vsftpd -y

chkconfig vsftpd on

system-config-firewall

        select ftp service as  trusted service.
