Question: is the b/u software pulling, or pushing? If the latter, I think
you could run it for the one IP that they back up to, and not as a daemon,
and outbound only.
And then I'd tell them that the backup site was insecure, and not meeting
requirements, and that you'd stand 5cm in front of your manager's desk,
and tell him that y'all needed to look for a new vendor, one that wasn't
helping crackers get into your backup data.
