I am using a small router at home as a gateway which has Linux running on a Coldfire processor, and no MMU. It has a "boa" web server. I closed the web and telnet ports to avoid being hacked by someone finding the open port. Does anyone have a "boa" hack that presents a less "friendly" face or another small Linux web server providing a hardened target?

You might want to check out thttpd, a small Web server that runs on Linux. I've had good experience with it in an LRP (Linux Router Project) environment and it seems fairly secure.
Great lead, thanks. Haven't had a chance to try it, but the router mfg suggested that thttpd might be in one of the Linux directories already on the unit. I just need to take the time (and I'm concerned that I might "break" something currently working) so I want to go slow.

Replace boa as web server?
