Another good reason to have a DNS caching server as part of your VM and Linux based server farm... 8-) Set up two Linux-based servers running bind9 as DHCP clients on the external interfaces, make sure there are more than one, and that your VM stack lists all of them in the NSINTERADDR line. Then you just force dhcpcd to renew it's info, and presto! Instant update, and the VM stack just keeps on plugging.
