Although you could post questions about
ASP.NET 2.0 here, if clearly identified,
but your best bet is to go to specialized 2.0
discussion groups, like

You will need to register to post questions, but it's free.
No need to register if you're just browsing
or searching the database.

As far as "minimum requirements for the servers",
the rule of thumb is : the bigger the better.
Joking aside, the requirements would depend
on what your applications are targeted to do.
Discounting HDD space ( I assume you'll have plenty of that )...
If your apps will have 1,000 hits a day,
you could probably get by with a 2 Ghz
processor and 512 MB ram.
My development box runs on that, and does well.
I wouldn't recommend running a *server* on that,
but since you asked for a *minimal* install, that'd do.
VS.NET will take any amount of RAM you throw at it,
and the faster the processor(s) is/are, the better your
performance will be.
If you're going to have 20-100,000 hits daily,
you might want to up that to a multi-processor
( 2-4 CPUs ) server with at least 1 GB ram
per processor.
Any more hits than that, and you'd
do well to consider a server cluster
and use Network Load balancing.
Then, you need to spec your SQL Server machine(s).
