Sure is. Personally I wouldn't do that unless MissingSync documented 
exactly what sort of security they've built into it, but if you're willing 
to take the risk, go for it. Assuming your Mac gets a live Internet 
address and is not firewalled:
- Enable network sync-ing
- Punch hole through firewall so 0/0 can connect on port 14238/TCP:
   "/sbin/ipfw add allow tcp from any 1024-65535 to any 14238 in"
- Install and configure dyndns client
