BlueOnyx doesn't do this out the box but there are two hacks that I have used which may be good enough. 1) You can write a script to do the whole Dynamic DNS for you. Put a DNS entry into the relevant DNS include file with a very low TTL... /var/named/chroot/var/named/db.example.com.include ... and write some code that first receives a check in from the customer with their IP address and then another script that will update the DNS include file and reload named if it changes. 2) Signup with a free dyndns.com address, they have clients that run on most home machines or routers that will update the address quickly. Then add a CNAME to that address from their domain. N.B. Be careful with CNAMES, don't CNAME the root of a domain. But for a host like homeoffice.example.com you should be fine.
