I have an obscure server visited more by indexing bots than anything else.  
Now it generates a megabyte per day of error and access logs due to the worm 
of the day looking for IISes to infect.

So what OS and httpd servers should you run if you want to evade the worms, 
virii, and rootkit intruders?  Is there a case for security through obscurity? 
 Rare OS  + rare WWW server = unattractive to the intruders?
