    Hi,

    I have an sql database that is accessed both from Intranet and a few
    users on the Internet. I am having a hard time deciding whether to put
    the database server on a DMZ and set up a second one for internal
    usage or just continue on with the server behind a good firewall but
    on the LAN, and a member of the internal domain.

    It is going to be a hassle (and expensive) to use two SQL servers for
    this - not only will I have to keep them synced, now the outside users
    authenticate with AD user names/passwords.

    What would you guys do?

    Thanks,

    Peter
