Stay clear of any version built specifically for 586 machines. This
certainly means Mandrake, but may include late versions of other
distributions, so check with their home site.
But I'm unsure of what you "really" intend using this machine for. Do
you really want a home network (in which case conventional wisdom
suggests that the server should be the most powerful box on site) or
just something to run php or CGI scripts on with Apache or whatever?
If you can get back with details of what you want to do with that little
old box (and what other machines and Operating Systems you have) I can
maybe be of more help. Personally, I like SuSE.
