And now it's down.  After some consideration, I decided to take that new system down.  
Although I was able to get the feeds in, I couldn't get messages out.  So thast system is 
no longer. 

Instead, I decided to lease another server and move my Mystic hub (mystic-
hobbies.com) and end the contract for the other.

To me it was a good move.  Although I do have to pay the $70/year fee, I don't have to 
worry about the hub going down due to weather or Windows updates.

I am currently on a cruise ship with great wi-fi and feel comfortable about it running 
smoothly.
