They asked me to open up my firewall to them, pointing at a fake server, just so they'd have something to audit, after failing our audit "because we only allowed access to the application from inside our firewall."

I'm glad it wasn't just me. We failed our audit because our firewall correctly detected their probes as an intrusion, and shut them down. It would be as if your home failed a security audit because no one could get through the external fence, so "we couldn't verify that the door was locked."
