Maybe, your ISP is probably the one to ask though....

Theoretically it is, but it's very likely that the phone charges would be
more than a 64k leased line.

You can install Personal WebServer for Win 95/98 and you'll have your snappy
little web server, via your quick little 56K modem.  And NO, if your provider
is local, there will be no increased phone charges.

Or yes, you can install NT/IIS and do the same thing.

Or, you can do things the right way.
Get real connectivity.

Definitely yes, I do it myself. If using win 95/98 as an operating system, I
would recommend " Xitami "

Description: A powerful, multithreaded webserver running on Windows 3.x and
Windows 95, Windows NT. Handles hundreds of simultaneous connections easily.
http://www.imatix.com/

I have used this one in win 95/98 and in NT  4.0 Server & Workstation with
out a hitch. It is small and very powerful. The only problem was with the
Ftp Server.

I am running a PII 233 with 96 SDRAM, 2.5 gig NTFS. When someone logged on
to the ftp server from Xitami , my computer just died. I had to wait until
he logged off so I could shut down the ftp server. I then started up ServU
2.4 and was up and running.

I also run a mp3 streaming server, but with a modem connection, I can only
let one user on at a time. Still, it is a neat thing.

I am online several times a day, just hop over
to http://littlefish.isn.net and check me out.

Providing your provider does not block port 80 (or other broadcast port)
access in to the dialup pool.
Not really something I would recommend. Most ISP also have an AUP that states
you cannot be running
any servers from their resources.
