it is better to leave it in a workgroup. while administration would be
easier if it were on your domain, if an attacker roots your webserver,
they have also achieved domain-level access. firewalls can't protect
against vulnerabilities in the services you intentionally offer and
lord knows iis has a lot of vulns to offer. if your webserver gets
cracked, the attacker can than easily compromise your domain.
