Internet connectivity via Win-ICS

Hi all,

Have two DEC Alpha 3000 systems (I think they're considered legacy servers) that I acquired from my former employer prior to the Voluntary Administrator seizing the assets.

They both have the basic SCO V4.0f OS installed and too be honest, I've had little time to even turn them on. This is more as a result of having to learn the ropes of being a first time parent and such.

Anyways, I do have a PIII-600 (using) running WinXP-Pro-SP2 and would like to know if anyone can shed some light on the following:[list=a][*]Can I connect the servers to the internet (dial-up) via a hub which is connected to the PIII using ICS?[*]As I have two servers, where would I best look at selling one of the servers?[*]The servers come with a VT420 console, is there a GUI for SCO that I could use via my Win PC?[*]Could I install a version of linux on this type of server?[/list=a] Any help apreciated.
