Hey, that sounds like a good idea (having procedures/guidelines)... I don't know of any guidelines geared specifically towards web servers, at least that are posted anywhere that I have seen. I did attend a seminar on web site usability for persons with disabilities, but I don't know where that information is online. As for general server guidelines, you may want to review your general system security. A good place to start is at: http://security.msu.edu/ In particular, look under "Promising Practices" for your OS, and particularly pay attention to the IIS checklist if you are going to use IIS (I'd recommend Apache instead, but you may have to consider other factors). Also look under "Security Tools" - much of the information there is valuable. An alternative to setting up your own server is to set up your web pages under AFS, on www.msu.edu, or on our virtual hosting web server (see "http://w3vh.msu.edu").
