Hi, I am a newbie on security, and I have just set-up a win2k server
connected to the public Internet with one card, and to my lan with
another... and I just wonder how should I do to maximize security.

I've set up in the Advanced properties of TCP/IP protocol for the Public
Card to allow connections only on port 80, because this machine is to host
web pages. (using IIS 5.0)

What else should I do to prevent instrusion access? I can not afford a
firewall right now. Is there other tool that provides security included in
Win2k ?

Thanks,
Andrea
