Suggestions for using Tight VNC to remote control a desktop sitting behind a dynamically assigned IP address ADSL service? The IP address could be provided manually on the fly by someone behind the ADSL modem to discover their external IP address using www.showmyip.com.

A better Option might be to use a service like http://www.no-ip.com/ . Your Dynamic IP address will be linked to a static name such as mycomputer.no-ip.com. Then you would never have to ask anyone to check the IP address of the Machine you wish to control.
