We recommend that you do not run an Internet Information Services (IIS) Web server on a domain controller. Domain controllers contain sensitive data such as user account information, and they should not be used in another role (unless you are running Small Business Server). If you run a Web server on a domain controller, you increase the complexity involved in securing the server and preventing attacks.
We recommend that you run Web servers and domain controllers on separate, dedicated computers.
