Hi Megan,A host configured like this would effectively bypass the security devices that create the DMZ rendering the DMZ pointless I think you had it right with the really bad idea. :-)

Security Folks, We want to have a VMWare host (VMWare Server) that has guest systems on the DMZ and Internal LAN. To accomplish this the host would have two interfaces, one on each network. Is this a really bad idea from a security perspective? What are some ways to mitigate the risks? Thanks! Megan
