Cough - urm Dynamic DNS - well I use nsupdate to update my local
DNS manually - this is the kind of sick discipline only regulars
in comp.protocols.dns.bind would inflict on themselves.

I haven't done much integration work with DHCP and DDNS, mainly
because I don't think DDNS is worth it for most people, but I'm
steadily mastering the more obscure bits of DDNS.

But what sort of trouble?

Port forwarding web traffic - hmm - couldn't you find a good
proxy? 

Real firewalls use proxies ;)
