The ``right'' way of doing it is to add
\frontmatter
at the beginning of your document
\mainmatter
at the beginning of serious stuff, and
\backmatter (or \endmatter, I don't remember)
before the ending part. All this marked as TeX, of course.
This will take care of page numbering, but also the sections will be
unnumbered (but appear in the toc) in the front and back part.
