Be careful implementing the above - you can easily lock yourself out of the box via telnet if you enter the wrong IP # or host name.
Or if your primary connection (with it's IP#) goes down and you use a backup connection. Though we're an ISP, we still have backup dialup connections to the Internt through alternative ISPs (ISPs are competitors, but we're friendly competitors <smile>). I've been tempted quite a bit to implement this, but I know that if my connection ever goes down I'm locked out of my system unless I'm willing to drive to San Diego <frown>.
