a Lamp box (Linux, Apache, MySql and PhP is teh choice of the moment.

You'd be hard pressed to find a set up that couldn't do this.

ASP, IIS and SQL Server on a windows box as well

Or LAPP (PostGreSQL) instead of MySQL..

You could mix and match WAPP, WAMP, you could implement ASP instead of PHP on an apache box, or PHP on an IIS box, though there's littel point unless you have soem resources in place already or a set tech path.

Reliable is a different story, that depeendds on how well you set up and use the tech.
