You will have to do this at network level. Split the LAN into three subnets, install a router between each LAN and configure router to allow HTTP (ports 80, 443) but not SQL (Port 1433) or File and Printer Sharing (SMB aka CIFS).

I do not think you can do this in Windows, its all or nothing.

thnx,

is that Windows [2000/XP/Vista] has a limit of the # of computers that connect to it. that limit is 10. The 11th will be denied a connection. To circumvent this, you need to split up your workgroup into subnets [different IP address ranges]and the best, economical way is to use any consumer level router. Anyone will do.
