What do you mean by the 2K3 machine can't see the router? Can you ping it? Any connectivity to any devices on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet? Is there a firewall blocking traffic - maybe the router itself?
The 2K3 machine can't ping the router (or any other device on the 192.168.1.x subnet. It's in the DMZ, so it should be able to ping the router, shouldn't it?
Other computers are using the router with no problems.
Probably the best, easiest and most secure thing to do is to set up port forwarding on the router for port 80 (and maybe 443 if you need HTTPS). That reduces the amount of exposure of the 2K3 machine and should reduce the possibility of getting hacked.
Yeah, that makes more sense than putting it in the DMZ. I put it there to try to get around the connectivity problem I was having with the router.
