Firewall setup

Hi,

    I have a PHP4 + PostgreSQL site that I have been working on for several
weeks now.  We're getting ready to put up the production site very shortly.
I would like to keep the database separate from the web server.  PostgreSQL
should be located behind the firewall and the web server outside.  How do I
work that with the firewall?  If I open up the database port does that mean
I put my database at risk?  Any ideas?
