It's been 2 months since I first asked my hosting company to set up a nostream server so I could do a relay. Nostream had a dependency my server OS didn't support. So the first strategy was to upgrade the OS. But then I gave it more thought and realized that the server probably didn't have enough RAM. So a month into it we figured out I need to change servers, not just have an OS upgrade.

As of yesterday the relay is up in dev mode, BUT the guy doing the migration/install then went on vacation for 2 weeks. (UGH!) Hopefully another support tech can take over and get things working properly. But we're close.

Then there's the issue that New York State has weird rules about crypto and I can't use ZBD - so I can't enable the (easy) payment method for nostream.

Bottom line - it will probably be a few more weeks before the relay is fully up and running. But it's a priority for me, so we'll see…
