When I first set up my 8600 as a web server I toyed with a lot of server
software, like Rumpus, WebStar, and even MS PWS.  I found MacHTTP to be the
best HTTP server to suit my needs, and NetPresenz to be the best FTP server. 
Both run simultaneously, ever single day, even right now, perfectly on 7.5.5.

NetPresenz can supposedly act as an HTTP and Gopher server as well, but I
wasn't able to get NetPresenz working correctly as either.

The system software is 7.5.5, but completely stripped down excpet for only
whats needed to run web servers.  It boots quick and runs excellent.

Soon though I may switch over to some other brand of server since my small
business is growing and clients need more flexible servers.  I don't want to
upgrade the system software though.

Dan,

Out of curiosity, what software are you using for your webserver? I just put
one up on my q950 and installed some mail software to replace one of my many
ill-fated P3 systems and it keeps up really well. I was next thinking of
attempting an AU/X install on a q800 since its probably one of the only
*nix's i've never used :P
