I have the exact same requirement, but I tunnelled the hobbit 
communications over ssh. 

There is a nice tutorial by Keith Sebesta on the old BB script repository: 
http://www.deadcat.net/3/BB-ssh.txt  Took me about 6 minutes to get it 
working.

I used bb-central back to bb times. worked quite fine. I suppose it 
should work with hobbit also. 
the idea is that an internal host runs the commands via ssh, and the 
results are sent by the internal host to the hobbit server.
It's quite interesting to have only one hobbit server. (I imagine you'll 
have to create as many hobbit server as you
have different DMZ networks).
