I agree with Dan (on the strongly disagree). Further, I would mention that the way some people used to do this was to have sort of two levels of firewall protection. They had strong firewall (or similar) protection for their personal computer / network, and then the server (for public use) sat outside that firewall, possibly with a less restrictive firewall in front of it. I vaguely think I remember a phrase like "demilitarized zone" for (iirc) the area outside your personal computer / network. I never did this. For a little while, a long time ago, I ran a server just for my home network (with no public access).
