Uhhmm... TFTP is a lot easier to set up.  On your Linux box:

1. Put the file somewhere on your system.
2. Make it world-readable
3. Edit /etc/inetd.conf and uncomment the line for tftp, and change the
argument to in.tftpd to be the directory path of the file.
4. kill -HUP <pid of inetd>

Whoala!

You now have a functional TFTP server.  Configuring NFS is much more
involved.

Now this is not to say TFTP is better by any means... it's just easier to
set up.
