Mark, If you can get a list of objections any host might have to using Farcry I am more than happy to help to resolve those both by implementing changes in the core and by working with the hosting provider to give them a customized solution that is tailored to their needs.
Depending on the urgency of your hosting requirements you could wait until I have enough spare time to make the required changes, or request the work be done through either myself or Daemon. In either case, you would need to have a list of specific reasons why your prefered host is not currently prepared to provide farcry hosting. Even if that list starts with a simple statement of the specific information that your host requires in order to better evaluate whether or not they could host farcry it would get the ball rolling. As Gary has already pointed out, practically every hosting provider has their own rules as to how they configure their systems and what they permit. Since Farcry is a relatively complex and advanced product it is difficult to give an absolute set of answers, so specific requests for information are probably what is required here.
