Lots of possibilities here...

But probably the most obvious one would be to expose your private
services in IIS on a different port, and don't expose that port through
your firewall to the internet.

Subject: Web Service Design


Can a IIS Server that is open to the public have web services on the
same machine that are only accessable from the public web service?

We are trying to design our app that it can be scaleable to a web farm,
and the first web service determines which server to send the client,
depending on who the client is.  However, I would like to keep the same
design for customers who don't have a web farm, which would mean that I
would be sending them to a web service on the same machine and I would
like that one to be private.  I took a quick look at IIS manager and
didn't see anything to set the V.D. to private.
