There are quite a few that should run. Unless you are intending to handle a huge number of clients I would have thought that a stock Linux wouldn't be a problem.

I'd start with the pointers here as there are many protocol differences depending on the 'net' you intend to join.

What do you mean by stock linux?

 

One that is 'out of the box', without doing major changes to things like the TCP/IP stack and recompiling the kernel.
