Either put more memory, or go with some older distribution. CentOS 3.x might run on it, not sure what are memory requirements for it. RHEL 2.x would run even better.
If you want RHEL 2 then you could use CentOS-2. CentOS-2 will not install on this hardware though. What you can do is swap the hard disk into an i686 machine and install. Then install the i386 kernel, glibc & openssl and then swap the disk back into the older CPU box.
Using it as a web server should be OK. X will struggle.
