making a computer a ULTIMATE webserver


I just got a computer with Windows 98 for free! I want to turn it into a webserver. I could easily install Apache, php, and my sql but I want to make this great! I have searched the internet for software that I can install for it but couldn't really find any. Any tips, hints, guides?

Thanks,
Sean.

Or any of the BSD Family..etc etc

All of the stuff you want to use has Win32 ports that will run under 98 but it will depend on how much memory as to what sort of performance you will get.

Apache: http://httpd.apache.org
PHP: http://www.php.net
MySQL: http://www.mqsql.com

Or better still get the lot bundled together here:
