  • If you use ldap authentication from dmz servers to domain controller, you only need to open one port, 389 for cleartext or 636 for TLS encrytion (preferred but requires a trusted certificate).  This also means that the dmz servers do not need to ne joined to tbe domain.

    Remember that ftp is unencrypted,  so you should not solicit login credentials or transfer senditove data unless the protocol is sftp or anofher secure protocol.

  • The other problem with authenticated remote access is that there a lot of smart bad guys who are busy doing password-guessing attacks.   You really need to have 2-factor authentication for remote access.   It is definitely required by PCI DSS for anyone who takes credit/debit cards.   You can implement 2-factor with UTM using either WAF (Webserver Protection) or SSL VPN in front o of your DMZ servers.   WAF, of course, would require converting your file share from ftp to https.
