Yep. Its great! (not the -best-, but good enough as it seems)

I connected with Arachne and then updated the WATTCP.CFG and
ran BOA (after configurating it and prepering my own main INDEX.HTM
file before starting everything, ofcourse)
I then asked a friend of mine to try and connect to me. I gave him
my IP, we remained on phone, and he confirmed that BOA was running
by reading to me on phone what I written in the Index. His access
to BOA was also logged on the on-screen activity monitor.
(that way I was also able to see that he was using Netscape
Communicator for Win95)
BOA seems like a cool little server. So if you got an old SurvPC
with no actuall use, and a LAN connection or any other connection
that doesnt charge you by the minutes, you can put up your own
little server! Dunno how it handles more then 1 person, though.
Next test i'll put a large file (say 3-4MB) and ask several friends
of mine to try to access it at once.
BTW, since its open-source, people are welcome to modifiy it.
