your server isn't that great for a win2k sys, so puttin win2k server is not a good idea...put linux

;D
I is not that it's not a good idea, W2K simply wouldn't work on anything lower then Celeron.
Minimum requirements for W2K srv by /\/\icroS are -> 133/32/1.2, it means you can install software but wouldn't be able to use it.
I've installed W2K pro on PP200/32/1.7 and it worked totally slow.
The rule of thumb sez double anything /\/\icroS claims for minimum reqs, but in the case of W2K srv you'll need at least:
P2 300+/128/2Gb/any VGA
And if you want to make this machine working Web server this may be enought for testing but obviously not for actual FTP/WWW (HTML ?) server.

As for a file server, what all does Windows 2000 prof. come with? Will I need 2000 server.

If you stick to micros, then W2K srv required for Web services. Consider freebsd, as it's the most popular, ergo the best OS for internet services.
