[rescue] Hosting a WWW server at home?

A friend asked me to locate his WWW server at my house. I can get a
business DSL conenction from my existing ISP. The traffic will be low so a
384Kb DSL will probably be fine. The ISP will put a baby router at my house.

My friend will pay for the DSL so it sounds like a good deal for me. He has
a couple of rack mount Sun 48V Ultra-2s for the WWW servers.

I was thinking of using NetBSD on a SPARC LX for a firewall. Is that
reasonable?

Any other advice?
