Actually, I think vpnd (or maybe vtund) can use dynip (I think that's
what it is) to create a vpn between two ISP assigned IPs on the net. 
Basically, the server posts its ip on the dynip server and the client
looks it up.

I have no idea if it actually works, but it's been written about.  Only
works for linux boxes.
