Dan what is considered "Loaded with RAM" in the context of a server with
Win, CF and SQL?

We have a few clients running dedicated servers with this setup. No
problems to report so far (that they have made me aware of anyway).
Careful running Win, CF, and SQL on the same box though. Load it up with
RAM and keep an eye on traffic.

I am buying a new box to use as a Cold Fusion server. I was thinking
about buying the Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003 premium
edition ($1499), since it comes with Win 2003, and SQL Server. Does
anyone have experience with this? Is it a good choice?

Thanks, jeff

I don't really have any formal documentation handy for this, but you can
pick up any book on web application security and it'll be in there
somewhere. As for whether the cost is justified, it's often hard to perform
cost-benefit analysis until it's too late.

I haven't heard anything bad about Win 2003 SBS, in fact I've heard a lot of
good things. If you are going to use it for in-house development I would
think It's a deal, but I wouldn't publicly host on a machine that is also
housing my SQL server for security purposes. Just my $.02

Dave do you have any docs on something like that? I was discussing it
the other day with someone and they requested some documentation so that
they can show their boss. The guy wants to go to a separate SQL server
but the boss won't let him until the cost is justified.

This might be ok for internal sites at relatively small locations, but I
really wouldn't recommend it for publicly accessible sites, due to the
performance and security ramifications of having your database server
and your web/application server on the same machine.
