Why yes! Like I said above, for clients with changing public IPs I'd use 
dynamic dns.

Yes it is and quite simply too. This can be done in your storage 
resource. Instead of using an IP address you may also use a hostname or 
fqdn. The rest is a bunch of dns-voodoo. In our case we just put the 
correct IP into /etc/hosts. We run the same sd in roundabout 20 VLANs 
these days using this technique. Whenever we set up a new client we add 
the correct VLAN-interface of the bacula-server to the clients 
/etc/hosts (for windows it's c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and 
works just as well).

Hope this helps
