My guess is use a VPN connection and then they and redirect that IP through
the VPN to you but that's a bit of overkill I guess.. as requests will go to
the 3rd party and then across to you.. that's a long trip and I think that's
the only way with dynamic unless you get some sort of Dynamic DNS going with
the 3rd party.

Subject: [SLUG] static Ip addresses
Hi,
I am in the process of trying to setup a linux machine connected to the
internet.
I am interested in using ADSL as supplied by telstra. Problem is that I
would require a static IP address, which they do not supply at the moment.
Is there some way I could use a class C IP address supplied from a 3rd party
as my static IP address. eg: Our head office in the UK has its own class C
address so could I get an IP from them to use here? If so what would I need
to do to get it to work properly?
regards
