How do I deploy a public facing SharePoint 2007 Site

Question

I am new to the SharePoint Development world and I have been given the task of making a public facing (extranet) site. I have been searching the web for a step by step and things to know, but have failed horribly!

Can anyone help me by either directing me to a post I may have overlooked or providing me a step by step guide to follow?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

Did you find Deployment for Office SharePoint 2007?

Answer 2

Have a look at Microsoft's Extranet Resource Center for SharePoint Products and Technologies. This is the most comprehensive site I've found that should contain everything you're looking for.
