Tutorials > somewhere? TIA, Probably easiest solved using dyndns.com or similar services. Or setup your own. The website uses a hostname. As soon as he connects, he updates the DNS to his new IP using the various programs available to do that. Then the website doesn't care what his IP is. If this isn't an option, it depends what he's using to stream the video. Icecast[1] on your server would do the job. If the mount point isn't connected by a client[2], it will return 404. I remember from a few years back, Apple's and Real's media servers have similar features. Your customer should then be configured to stream to your server.
