Gary: It's a semantic distinction between "secure server" and "secure service". It's likely that if you have a mchine with credit card data on it, you would want "secure server" as well as "secure service". Personally, I think it's just plain common sense to have a secure WWW service offered on a machine with all other ports switched off and/or firewalled from access.
