    Hiya,

    How do I get Mystic to serve a game or door via RLOGIN for other BBS connections to connect to? Is this possible with Mystic?

    ... Anything is possible if you don't know what you're talking about

    Hey Christian, it is possible with the with the autocreate.mps file. Although I couldn't get it to work properly. Doorparty is running it that way now. He did some modifications to his file and has it running great. Check out the Mystic Wiki there is a section on setting up as a Door Server..

    Hope that helps...

    Hey Al,

    I did look over the wiki, but couldn't see anything specifically for allowing you to make a door server - I can see you can enable an RLOGIN server, but I assumed I could like a server to a specific command or door game, however I couldn't see how from the wiki.

    I've written a small python bridge that accepts RLOGIN and spawns something of my choosing tho, so I have sort of achieved this outside of Mystic, but I would like to know if it is possible with Mystic.

    ... They say there's always one weirdo on the bus, but I couldn't find them!

    It's supposed to automatically create a account etc, in my travels with it, it didn't work as designed. I tried for about a week, I currently run Synchronet with E-Chicken's front end for Door party without the tunnel hookup it runs great, but I want to do away with all of my Windows VM's and that is my last, so I was thinking about going with Mystic as my door server, I tried everything, Unless I created an account manually it wouldn't do it. Worked great if I created the account then logged back in via RLOGIN but that whole create the account defeated the purpose.. So I will stick with my Synchro server on WIn 10 32bit.. It works, so I guess why fix what ain't broken! LOL
