I was looking at the DIP Update by http://dip-update.lastdownload.com/ out of intrest That is a Dynamic IP script that updtes an ever-changing IP address and got the idea of making a php script
that would do a simmilar job independant of any dydns service providers basicaly what it does is fetches your external ip address of your local server updates a remote mysql server were a link can be updated on a webpage if requierd to your local server,
However if the script is installed on two servers that have dynamic ip address and they can access the remote Mysql database they can access each others servers that have dynamic ip address Anyway the script can be found here on my server also their is some docs and if you have probs obtaining your external ip iv included a java prog to retreave your ip address that you can enter manualy
their is some more docs their as well somthing that im not to good at hope it might be of use to someone

I used to use a simillar script to parse data local and save them to the server. Of course this is not the best practice that someone can use, but it is good when you are on a non static ip connection.
