I have just taken ownership of a dedicated Windows 2000 server which I'd like to use for hosting some websites. I've installed Netshield Anti-Virus and Server Alive Monitoring, but can anyone recommend some firewall software? Someone said that I could just as well use a piece of personal firewall software such as Zone Alarm Pro - would this be sufficient for a server hosting websites?
Now I know that many of you are going to suggest I use a firewall hardware solution, but as I do not have direct access to the server (it's housed miles away with an ISP) a firewall software solution is the only option I've got......just not sure what software would be best???
