Something that someone mentioned in passing triggered a thought.
My server gets it's ip address via DHCP from my ISP.  Currently I have a 
cron job that queries the address and, if it changed, update a DNS 
server externally.  This way I can use mail and web services external to 
my network.
Can I replace the cron job with a trigger from the dhcp client when it 
gets a new IP address instead?  Is this possible with the current dhcp 
client or a replacement?
