Thanks for the reply Chris, though this was not what I wanted to hear. ;o)

Now what does not feasible mean?  Does it mean it is not possible, or does it mean it is possible,

What other options do I have to connect two networks together, one with a dynamic IP?

Any hints would be much appreciated!
