    Also can you explain your reasonings behind putting a SQL server in the DMZ? Typically you would want your databases to be on the secure LAN protected by firewalls etc.

    Sure although I didn't have a say in this setup. I am only sorting out the SQL Server installation.

    I believe it's going to be used by a web application and the DMZ is protected by a firewall so no one from the outside can access this database server but other web servers can communicate with it.

    It takes a minimal capacity for rational thought to see that the corporate 'free press' is a structurally irrational and biased, and extremely violent, system of elite propaganda.

    Society has varying and conflicting interests; what is called objectivity is the disguise of one of these interests - that of neutrality. But neutrality is a fiction in an unneutral world. There are victims, there are executioners, and there are bystanders... and the 'objectivity' of the bystander calls for inaction while other heads fall.
