I register to 4 different SIP accounts from my phone - only 1 of them can be registered using the OpenVPN function of the phone.
Since the phone may travel, that means the non-OpenVPN systems need to know what my phone's public IP address is. We use white lists to allow registration - as the phone moves it's IP address/dydns address must update.
My cellphone runs a dydns checker and my router does too (OpenWRT) - seems like the code and methodologies for this are already well defined in the linux world.
This would simplify life tremendously for those times when either a) the IP changes on a users line (think home users) or b) when the phone is packed up and moved to a new environment. For OpenVPN connections it is irrelevant, but it is relevant for those other accounts.
