No problems doing it that way for me anyway. If you DMZ the computer just make sure to have good antivirus and a firewall running. The only problem with it is if two friends are coming from one IP they have to learn to share an account , so instead of eight characters they can each make 4.....unless one person is much bigger then the other then he can make 7 and the other person 1, lol well you get the picture.

Sounds interesting ... I would like to be able to let a few people come in and help me out with my database, and this would be the way to do it.
What's NOIP ( Like dyndns.org)? , I bet we can come up with a script that detects who is where, and will translate/change IP entry in the database.
