Well, at last here's your answer - noiptun. Yes, it requires an IP stack to be compiled into the kernel but no IP addresses necessary on the real interface(s). And if stealth IDS setups aren't your bag, then you can at least use it to browse /. without having an IP bound to your linux workstation."

    or does this sort of defeat the whole point of having a box that you can't connect to over the network in the first place? Whats to stop an attacker connecting through the tunnel to the noip'd box?
