-> You forget WinServer... which was pretty much built for the web.

Lot of negative can be spoken about WinServer, the cost, the support for
the bbs dos version, etc.  But as a WebServer it is fantastic and is
well supported and has been developed well over the years.

I use as my main web server and I still run the bbs even though that
portion has not been supported in years or any kind of update or
development.
                                                        
I bought the community version which was a two node system and have over
time purchased up to 12 nodes.  That initial cost was around 200.00,  I
was retired and had the money to invest.  No regrets. I do regret
spending so much on the annual subscription to get updates, but then
again the web portion actively being developed.

However as of late, it has slowed down to a crawl.  But the WinServer
web is strong also and very flexible in configuration.  

My .02, hopefully I am not to bashed in the head to much.
