mmm actually it is matter of capacity. and what type of application u will run.<br />
because if u use a good FW, locked down windows and latest updates and good IPS/IDS then i think that u cam run other application on it<br />
i used the FE as an SQL database server once<br />
so it is about ur hardware and load limit<br />
the best way is to create a base lineinstall the app then check the performance and compare it to the baseline

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
