I think it's the fact that all your builders have a slash in their name that
confuses the url handler, e.g.
https://proteus.usace.army.mil/buildbot/builders/ and
https://proteus.usace.army.mil/buildbot/buildslaves/diamond are accessible
but not
https://proteus.usace.army.mil/buildbot/builders/Ubuntu%2Fgnu%20%28proteus.usace%29
.

I think buildbot should refuse "/" in the builder and slave name, it'd be
simpler.

You can setup an http connect proxy but that's going to be flaky. If
everything is public, you're probably better to host the master outside
'corp' or in a dmz anyway.
