   About five years ago I ran the then-latest version of 32-bit Arch Linux on a   
   1998 Toshiba Satellite 4000CDS with 160 MB RAM and a 40 GB HDD.   
      
   For a web server you could use nginx. Set worker_processes to 1 in nginx.conf   
   may reduce its memory footprint.   
      
   Another alternative is lighttpd.   
      
   FreeBSD/i386 should also run fine in 128 MB RAM on an old PC.   
      
   Installing FTN stuff (binkd/hpt/etc) in Linux/BSD on an old PC is no different   
   to a modern machine, just slower :)
