Cactus is an unknown quantity at this point
What you'll need if you will be using Outlook XP is a Windows 2000 Server or Windows 2003 Server with Exchange Server 2000 or Exchange Server 2003 Beta 2. If you'will be using any earlier version of Outlook, any Windows OS will do as a server OS, and you won't need Exchange Server, cause then you could use Microsoft Mail (a WorkGroup Post Office). All you need then to get a shared Outlook calendar are some Windows 95 .ddl files and a cpl file to setup the WGPO, and your on your way.

Also the Access database can be run from any of the above servers.

Of course seting up a real server with a Windows Server OS will be faster, more stable and will give you loads of evtra functionality (DHCP/DNS/Share internet connections etc), but setting up a server with Windows XP or even Windows 9x is much easier.

Hope this helps a bit.
