When I loose my internet connection to my server here and my IP changes any
SSH attempts to contact it will not be successful until my DNS records are
updated, by not successful I mean I have left it for around a half an hour -
no idea what happens after that, also Apache bails out on me... grrr....

Does the machine in question have a DNS record Sandra ?

Cheers,
