It depends on the way its setup... If you connect to a computer on a local
area network you can easily just setup "Dynamic DNS" which means that
each time DHCP sends out a new IP address it is automatically added to
the DNS records, thus, you will be able to always access the workstation
by hostname rather than by IP
