WebDb is the former name of Portal (Pre 3 versions were called WebDb - latest being WebDb 2.2)

Things have changed between WebDb and Portal Rel 2; I'd stay with iAS Rel 1 (Ver 1.0.2.2.2), to make the possibility of broken code minimal.

OTOH, it may run without the iAS component as well, just install the rdbms and the (included) Apache. This might be the case when no Portal (WebDb) specifics are used, like Single Sign On (SSO), Portlets, etc.

What do you mean with the AppServer stack? If you go for iAS, you would just need a minimal install, with Portal (option 2 when installing, iirc)
