You can have dyndns.org host a few DNS records for you, so you don't need to 
run your own nameserver.  "get to" is not very specific, but if you want a 
bunch of machines to be reachable remotely, talk to your ISP and obtain a 
routable subnet from them.  Of course, they could also host your DNS instead 
of dyndns.org, but that's up to you.
