[wplug] Minimum requirements for server?

[Chris]

Well, I have apache and MySQL running on a 266 MHz machine with 40 MB of
ram.  It's internal use only, but it runs good.  I would like to be able to
get apache on the net but I can't seem to get it to work.  I don't know if
it's a problem with my firewall or that I have apache configured wrong.  But
anyways, if you don't have X running, that machine should do just fine.

Looking for info on reasonable minimum requirements for a linux server
running apache and maybe mysql.  This would be mostly just for personal use
to test and play around with.  I've heard of people running this combo on a
166 MHz Pentium with something like 32 MB RAM.  How well would this work?
Anybody have some experience?  I'm kinda interested in finding out how well
these servers run on limited hardware.

One of the things I love about linux is that what many other computer users
consider out-dated and junk can be used in some impressive ways.

Any suggestions or experiences would be appriciated!
