Yes, a DMZ is setup in such a way:
------------ Internet ------------ | ------------ Firewall ------------ | ------------ Servers for public use eg Web, mail etc ------------ | ------------ Firewall ------------ | ------------ Internal lan ------------
Of course, depending on your purposes and resources this may be over the top.

I am certainly not aware of many of the security related issues. I would appreciate if someone could let me know how bad the security is in my network, and suggestions to rectify it.
well... i m no expert on network security and i can only go by what i have come across in my readings ...
my understanding is that a more secure setup is probably
-------- Internet -------- / / ------- ADSL ------- / / --------- Web svr --------- / / --------- Firewall --------- / / -------------- My Network --------------
as i do not have a publicly accessed web svr myself .. i am simply
guessing at
the above topology ... and i m happy to be corrected by those more
familiar
with such matters :)
i have seen previously from one of the other postings where a firewall was installed between the ADSL and Web Svr as well
