Speaking out of turn here, the DNS is a pointer to an address, so depending
on your DHCP lease length, I would just set up an A record for it in DNS all
normal-like. I did see some stuff in the ports about dynamic DNS, although I
haven't ventured out that far yet, but maybe someone here will pounce on
this. However, before I got dedicated IP addresses, I just added my DHCP
assigned address as my A record for my domain name.

Hope this helps,
His Faithful Servant,
Mark
