(snip snip)

If I understand you correctly, have you looked
into dns2go from deerfield.com?

It may not satisfy you. All it does is register
with their server when you go online, so that a
"fake" name that you use can be used at any time
to access your machine (e.g., foobar.dns2go.com).
But it doesn't provide a way to tell when you're
online other than by just trying it.
