I would take a look at ISA server.

I hope this is the right place to post this...

We develop numerous internal web applications that we occasionally need to
publish to customers. In very sensitive scenarios, we will force them to
use a VPN to connect. In others, we just publish a server/app beyond the
firewall. I would like to see a solution that could handle both scenarios
easily, and would not require that I put multiple servers or apps outside
the firewall.

My thoughts were to use something like what Anonymizer (http://www.anonymizer.com) does. Essentially, it just forwards requests
for you, and returns the information to you. So, if someone out there went
to http://mydomain.com and logged in, they could then go to http://mydomain.com?server=someserver (or something like that). Does anyone out there know of a tool like this that is already available? I would prefer a Windows platform, but 'nix is acceptable.
