Well, The apache server spins off children for each connection. Those children can be on different processors so I guess its SMP compatible. The software doesn't have to be SMP aware, the kernel handles all that.
Any server which forks processes for each connection will work very well on a SMP machine. I can think of a couple (telnet, apache, ftp, postgres, samba, sendmail, etc...)
