.NET server built in firewall?

tear
I have installed. NET server RC1 on my gateway. When I setup NAT on it it asked me if I wanted to use the built in firewall. Is this firewall any good? Or should I install a third party firewall like Norton Personal Firewall.

I just recently set up a home network. I like to work on the computer that is not set up as the server computer(the one in my signature). I was wondering if it is possible to access the server when it is on standby.

Possible to have a networked cd-rom?

JoosMan
I was wondering if it is possible to share a cd-rom drive over a network and make the computers that it is shared to see it as a true cd-rom drive. I know that you can map to the cd-rom so that it has a specified drive letter but then it is just seen as a normal networked drive.
