I have a cable modem, which I plug either my laptop or my home pc into. I have a
public static ip address of a 24.x block. When I leave town, I'll usually leave my
computer on so I can connect back to it via ssh. Just like any other connection.
I've also done some light probing. Turns out I connect directly to a cisco router
running on a 10.x net block, then I'm passed through to some machines with 24.x public
ip addresses.
Just ask the guy to get his ip address, and install a server service and you should be
golden. You can check it from comsource.
Oh, I also have a domain name, but it's rather long.
