Fogive me if this is a stupid question, but i'm new to this whole sharepoint thing. Here is what we have:

An internal 2003 SBS server hosting a sharepoint site (nothing fancy, just the default thing with only discussions happening on it). What we want to do is have the sharepoint site available to users outside our network so they can contribute to the discussions. Our problem(?) lies in that we do not host our own website, it's hosted by a 3rd party company. Now, we'd very much like to be able to have the external users goto and hit our sharepoint server. My question is, what would i need to do to mkae htis happen? Woul dit be as simple as getting a DNS entry created saying that for go to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx ip address (which would be the public IP of our server) or is it more involved than that?

Any pointers or advice would be greatly appreciated!

TIA!
