Hi, Our server group wants to MAP some production servers from inside our network to servers out on our DMZ. The reason they want to do this is to easily load software upgrades and patches between the internal and DMZ servers. Another reason is to easily inspect the logs on some of the high traffic DMZ servers from servers within our network. At this point I am not sure what services/ports on the internal DMZ firewall should be open. What are the security risks? I know there have been some vulnerabilities associated with NFS. Should I deny the security request?
