The problem with that idea is that the webserver portion will be installed in a DMZ, 
away from the database.   Which got me thinking...what if I just installed the http 
portion of the database install on the webserver box?  I would be using the http 
listener that comes with the database, but I wouldn't be using the database on the 
same machine.  I wonder what licensing issues that raises?

If you don't plan to have many users, I think you could make do
with the Oracle HTTP Server (Powered by Apache) that comes
bundled with the database from 8.1.6 and onwards. No need
to rewrite any code, as it comes with mod_plsql and the 
PL/SQL Web Toolkit.

You could also consider ChangeGroup PL/SQL Server Pages
(see http://www.changegroup.biz/da/cgpsp.psp). That would
require a rewrite, but it shouldn't be that hard...
