AFAIK, you can do IPSec with only one fixed IP address, but not with none. Part of its security is that it authenticates against IP addresses, and I'm pretty sure it does not rely on DNS lookups. OTOH, I'm pretty sure that PPTP will work with dynamic addresses both ends, as long as you have some way of communicating the new addresses - Dynamic DNS perhaps. You would need to install the PPTP client on SME - but that should not be hard.
