OT: how can an intranet & Internet share the same appserver, but remain secure?

[Becky Phaneuf <PH...@wapa.gov>]

Has anyone tried to do this before?

The dilemma:
How would one architect a system that requires an intranet and an
Internet site be able to share the same appserver (EJBs, logic), but
still remain as secure as possible?  It doesn't have to be a
Tomcat/JBoss-specific solution (actually, they've decided on Oracle
9iAS), just some methodologies, suggestions, thoughts, comments...

Thanks!

Hello Becky, i thought that was the purpose of the oracle 9i portals. 
someone correct me if i'm wrong. the only disadvantage over 9i is oracle is 
going to want u to use jdeveloper (a huge resource pig, minimum 1+ ghz dual 
and 1gb mem) and the 9i designer stuff severely limiting flexibilty in 
design options compare to using jboss/jetty or jboss/tc. the implications of 
this statement are in terms of overall design flexibility if u r used to 
design using an erd/uml base design methodology or system (toad/qdesigner, 
rational, visio etc.) u won't be able to do that using the oracle 9iAS. the 
9iAS is a package of the leading techologies: apache and tc servlet server 
and the orion j2ee (oc4j.jar) is embedded in the jdeveloper. if u don't 
believe me compile and deploy a jdeveloper project w/ a zero length 
server.xml (the only xml file the remains in the entire 9i package) and 
watch the tomcat exception error message that comes up. ultimately, u will 
be using the same technologies but different packaging. if ur company can 
afford the 9iAS cpu license and the hardware to run it then make sure u get 
the oracle meta-link for online expert help. hope this helps, david.
