A friend of mine runs 8 web-sites from a dual PIII-600 system as well as email and DNS with no hickups at all. Yours should be fine, but keep in mind that it will also depend on how many hits you get on your web-site and how large the files are, ie; if your users are moving large graphic files across your network on a regular basis, and you're hitting 250 consecutive connections on your web-server, you may want to stay ahead of the potential problem by loading up on ram, and setting up SCSI drives. It also can't hurt to make sure your running all your INTRANET users on 10/100 mbps network cards. I had that exact problem with a dual PIII-866 system, but those upgrades solved the problem, for now.
