Well.. the way I do it is that my outside machines, although they are dhcp based, I leave the machines up, so the ip's never change (or very rarely) and in those cases I'm just stuck out. BUT ... in the case where the box loses its IP address, and regains a new one, you could just have someone on the local network of the other box connect to the weblet and review the ip addresses. It's a manual fix, but doing it this way would be more secure, than if you opened the port completely. But its your call...
