This isn't very zope-specific, but

Pointing the dns to your firewall's external ip + port forwarding
should do it, I once had a similar setup (modulo dns and firewall,
but the port forwarding part).
Also a siteroot to rewrite zope's generated uris.

While being offtopic for this list: 
You're really running a dns-service on your firewall, accessible from outside?
