[LUG] Hosts or DNS to handle home and away machine



Is there a way to set up routing from here to a PC that has a fixed IP address 
when it is at its owner's university, and when it comes back here gets a 
different address?

It runs DHCP, and the DHCP server here is the router rather than a Linux box - 
but that could be changed.

Currently I use hosts files rather than DNS, but that also could be changed.

The default is to edit the master hosts file on each return but i wonder if 
there is a once for all solution?
