Just installed my new IIS web server for my school district to replace a Novell box. Followed some best suggestions I found on the Internet for securing IIS and FTP. My server will eventually be on a DMZ and was wanting to know if anyone has this simular design and some assistance on what needs to be minimally on using the SCW.

There are a lot of options to choose from using the SCW and based upon using my server (standalone/non-AD) with IIS for Web, FTP, and Media Streaming, what are the best options to choose in SCW unless someone already has profile done for client and server that they could point me to?

Also, whose DNS do I use for name resolution? My first thought is to use the ISP's DNS, but I'm thinking I will have some problem with my internal users hitting that box for web and ftp (ftp will only be allowed from private LAN).This server will also have a link to a SSL site hosted on my internal Exchange server.

Lastly, any thoughts or design changes I need to look at?
