Probably the best idea!

Yes, you can edit the GConf key :
gconftool-2
--set /apps/gnomemeeting/protocols/h323/call_forwarding/forward_host
111.222.333.444 --type=string

For version 1.2, no need to restart GnomeMeeting, it will be taken into
account immediately.

Another possibility would be to signup for a free dynamic DNS account :
http://www.dyndns.org and use the dynamic DNS name.
