You can assign static NAT-entries in many NAT-able devices.
Their machine does not get 1.2.3.4, but (assume 192.168.1 is their internal
net) maybe www gets forwarded like

1.2.3.4:80 -> 192.168.1.2:8080 (www to nonstandard www-server)

telnet like

1.2.3.4:23 -> 192.168.1.3:23   (telnet to machine with shell-accounts)
