Subject: rexec to DMZ

Our firewall has 3 interfaces; internal, Internet, and DMZ.  Our DMZ is
becoming the place where we put the communications servers on which we talk
to our various other companies, normally on dedicated lines.  The plan is to
allow only very specific communication, if any, between the Internet and
DMZ.

One of the projects has requested that I poke an REXEC hole from the
internal network to the DMZ.  This will not go to the Internet.  As I am not
aware of any REXEC proxies and am generally skittish about the R-series
commands, I'm looking for any advice in this regard.  Is this a good idea?
If I do it, which ports, etc.
