Securing www server w/Oracle back end.

["Georges Jahchan" <georges.jahchan () balamand edu lb>]

I have been assigned the task of planning the security setup for a (to
be deployed) online system consisting of a publicly accessible web
server front-end (https), with an Oracle 9i back-end database. Both run
on IBM RS/6000 platform w/64-bit AIX O/S).

The scenario where the web server would be placed in DMZ and the
database server in a restricted private zone, with holes punched through
the firewall between DMZ and private zones is a dangerous proposition.

Any suggestions regarding securing such a setup are welcome.

TIA
