You need to set up DNS so that the dynamic IP address assigned
internally resolves to a hostname that your system likes. It may
be sufficient to do this in the /etc/hosts file.
We use split-horizon DNS with djbdns to allow internal resolution
of private subdomains and reverse DNS for the local private net
blocks without broadcasting this to the world.

A child can go only so far in life without potty training. It is not
mere coincidence that six of the last seven presidents were potty
trained, not to mention nearly half of the nation's state legislators.
