Not with the latest updates I think. However, if you really want to expose
your network, run a password-protected webserver using the same NT SAM used
on the LAN for authentication :-).
If you're going to be using the LAN's NT SAM for authentication, I'd suggest
setting the Account Policy to disable the account after three incorrect
password attempts, and re-enable it after a few minutes.
