A typical database/web layout has the database servers in the LAN with
the Web Servers in the DMZ. You open the port(s) needed for database
communications between the Web Servers and the Database servers through
the firewall DMZ>LAN, and only to those IP/Ports. You do not use Windows
Authentication in your database/web application, you would use SQL
Authentication.
If you network is based on Microsoft platforms you want to make sure
that your web servers are NOT part of your active directory structure
and that you only open the Database communication ports from the web
servers to them.
