This sounds like a cool challenge Doug, although it is something I personally 
have not done, it should be pretty staight forward, you will need to purchase 
your own IP addresses, and I think you can do it from here (but its not 
cheap):

You also need to have your own DNS server, so you can maintain your own 
records and sync with the other DNS servers.

Here is another link that may provide some useful information:

Hope this helps
