There is a decent survey of the issues associated with securing Window/NT
as a web host in the Feb 97 issue of Byte Magazine, page 117 in my copy.
Included are a number of solution suggestions. I haven't studied the
article in enough depth to comment on completeness, etc.
Mostly I think it shows that there are serious issues and one should no
more consider dropping NT on the WEB than one would consider dropping
a UNIX system on the WEB. Different issues, but issues in any case.
