VNCTracker is a tool which you can keep track of mostly dynamic hosts on various dial-up accounts.

Rather than call each user whenever you need a current IP address for connecting with VNC, you visit the Web page generated by VNCTracker which shows the updated IP address for that host.

You can then build .vnc files for easily starting VNC with the settings to connect to the host.

Have your client's pc visit your logip.php page like so:

http://vnc.mydomain.com/vnctracker/logip.php?hostname=robert&port=5900

The IP Address is retrieved with getenv('REMOTE_ADDR'); then the IP, port and hostname are inserted into the vnctracker database for viewing with showip.php

Requirements:
HTTP Server (Apache)
PHP4 (others may work)
MySQL
bash (or some other eqiv shell)
grep
gawk
tail (for searching mail logs)

What's New in 2.2 Stable Release:
Changed default page for vnctracker from showip.php to index.php.
Changed showip.css to style.css.
Still needs RegisterGlobals = On. (sorry, will fix that soon)
Check the /rss/index.php and adjust as necessary. That is the template
for feedcreator.
