thats the output from sudo turnserver/coturn (with website and ip blocked out)
server-name=turn.[webbysite].com

and thats my config (website blocked out)
can anyone help me?
i'm also using ssh, if anyone was wondering
Making a guess here @PaxtonPenguin
You use hostname as the listening IP listening-ip=turn.[wombat sauce].com so that coturn resolves it to an actual IP using DNS and then, using resolved IP, tries to bind the socket to the address. That's where it fails.
Error 99 means EADDRNOTAVAIL which means this IP does not exist in your system
That means your DNS is not up to date - actual IP of the machine you run on does not match DNS record.
Try without specifying listening-ip and see if it works
that worked
Update your DNS or use some other way to specify listening IP
Or you can go without specifying IP and coturn will listen on all interfaces
