I'd think that most distributions would run on a Pentium III. Heck, a 1GHz machine is faster than the machine we use at work for web, database, and file services, with hard disk and CD replication on top of that. The more RAM the merrier of course. 256 would be better than 128. Also watch out for BIOS limitations on hard drive size(which won't matter unless you're using very large hard drives on old machines); once Linux gets going it couldn't care less what the BIOS limit is, but the partition it boots from must be small enough for the BIOS to understand.
