VM Host with guests on the Internal and DMZ networks

Security Folks,

We want to have a VMWare
host (VMWare Server) that has guest systems on the DMZ and Internal
LAN. To accomplish
this the host would have two interfaces, one on each network. Is this
a really bad idea from a security perspective? What are some ways to
mitigate the risks?

Thanks!
Megan
