I'm not sure what a LAN means in this context, but perhaps something
like FreeNAS would be suitable?

Also, why FreeBSD 7.4? You might consider 8.2.

The canonical freebsd documentation is the handbook, located at
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/. It should be
sufficient to work through any common freebsd questions or tasks.
