AKAIK, there is no simple way. If the two computers use a dynamic IP system 
like PPPoE or DHCP, then everytime they connect to the internet, is is very 
likely that the IP will change. So, you'd either have to use a central 
server that manages the remote computer IP addresses, or use dynamic domain 
names.
