Which webserver would be better for this computer?


I have a computer running DamnSmall Linux and i need a webserver that supports php and mysql.
This computer is a pentium 166 mhz with 16 mb of ram. It don't run any kind of window manager, just console.
I tought about running apache, but i'm thinking if there isn't a better choice for this, because the site this computer will run is realyyyyyyyy simple, but it needs php.

What would you recommend?

If you're not running a gui and just running apache with the php mod then it should work fine. I ran apache (without php obviously) on my P133 laptop back in '99 under Mandrake 6.1 and it ran fine, even with KDE 2.0 loaded.
