Joe, If you don't mind educating a novice, could you explain what you mean by a "proprietary protocol"?

There should be no "standard" access from the DMZ to protected machines. There should always be some manner of proprietary protocol. Without that, you've degraded your security to the point of simple password hacking. Joe
