A firewall wich allows _any_ connection from untrusted
sources into the internal net does not deserve that name.

Public services should be placed in the dmz, and not even
the dmz should be allowed to create connections into the
internal net.

One single server in the dmz will be enough, dont forget
to setup some intrusion-detection and monitor the box.
