Will dhs or the like allow for different ports? IOW, could you set up
your dynamic DNS record with them such that requests for
"http://wokan.home.dhs.org" actually get given
"http://ipnumber:portnum/~wokan" instead?  That would certainly allow
you to bypass @home or other providers port 80 restrictions, not to
mention the nasty-red-liquid-crap running around looking for port 80's
to knock over.
