Just my brief $.02:
* set up dmz or service network on separate subnet from internal LAN
* acquire border appliance/firewall to support the three networks
    1) external - the public internet address(es)
    2) service - a second private network for web/sql
    3) internal - what you already have, your LAN
* secure *and* harden win2k host
* secure apache
* allow minimal ports from external to service net, *not* SQL
* allow windowsupdate out from service net
