The guides on NSA's website (www.nsa.gov) or (http://nsa1.www.conxion.com) provide a wealth of information that should help you answer your question. There is no "best" tool for every application. You need to analyze your situation and choose something appropriate. As a government administrator you should probably check your agency's policies before implementing your own solution.

If it's only serving out web and email, I would simply isolate it on the DMZ. No traffic allowed from DMZ to the LAN. That way if your server is compromised, the rest of the LAN is still safe.

As mentioned above, consider your needs and go from there.

Good luck.
