Yeah, FTP, SSH and proper permissions should take care of that

Perhaps this is just my ignorance, but how would the computer they're working on be able to find your computer with a dynamic IP?

isnt it related to Remote Access ?

I have used Remote Administrator on LAN which gives complete access on computer.

Web browsers will allow access to FTP. Just type: ftp://myftaddress in the browser.

There are Dynamic DNS services that place a lightweight service on your computer to keep your IP up to date with their DNS server. Also for my ISP, when the IP expires for my computer, it almost always gives me the same one again.

One such site that offers Dynamic DNS services is http://dyndns.org

Lots of routers support dynamic DNS services as well and will auto update them if your external IP address changes.
