[expert] How to reach a box with hidden IP

[Olaf Marzocchi]

In the next months I plan to put a small linux box always connected to the Net, but I have a problem: my provider hides the ip: from 3 to 5 users appear to have the same IP, so I cannot reach my box from outside (they also have a firewall).
Is there a way to solve this problem?

I thought that a bot always connected to IRC in an hidden channel could do the trick: I tell him a password (at the moment I don't know how to check whether I'm the only user inside the channel, bot excluded) and it executes every command I give him. I start an ssh session from inside the provider's network and I'm done.

Is this idea good or is it simply an open door for crackers?

Thank you all
Olaf
