Sounds like a job for DNS or NETBIOS. nmblookup should resolve to the
current IP if you're using Samba as a transport. Else, I'm imagining the
client PC with a script that updates it's DNS record periodically. Or as
another alternative, you could create a seperate host in BackupPC using the
alternate network IP.
