If you don't mind my asking, Alex.. what's wrong with using the Apache 
web-server that comes with SuSE?

Run up Yast2 on a command line interface (CLI), go to 'software update' 
(I believe - I can't get to the local console, because the 
keyboard/monitor have been removed from the server - as it should be) 
and search and find 'Apache' and you'll also get all the files that need 
to be included in that package, and SuSEConfig will install it for you.  
After you customize it, the overhead of the VM can be reduced by 
removing it, memory is freed up and the machine becomes more like a 
pentium again, instead of an XT.

Your mileage may vary.  Void where prohibited.  Keep out of reach of 
minors, etc...
