I don't understand your question. What exactly is a "server" for you?
You can use sshd to install an ssh service and inetutils to get telnet,
ftp, rlogin services.
There's an apache port on http://www.student.uni-koeln.de/cygwin.
Under no circumstances you are forced to use NT Server to install
these services. sshd and inetd are running even under 9x/ME.
