      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 1:129/215 87ef6a2a       REPLY: 4:900/107 e8dbbd8b       TZUTC: -0400        bu> What I was wondering, is, instead of "invalid PKT" it could show        bu> "Attempted to use password, but .PKT does not require it, please        bu> unconfigure it" .              I think its tough to put in a message like that because Mystic doesn't really       know who made the mistake. In your specific case it would be correct, but it       could just as well be the opposite: You agreed to use a password but the hub       forgot to configure the password on their side.              So because of that Mystic just tells you that the passwords do not match and       leaves it up to the SysOp and Hub to figure out which one made the mistake.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/04/01 (Windows/64)        * Origin: Sector 7 | Mystic WHQ (1:129/215)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/340 457 123/10 131 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 129/215 305 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 220/50 80 90 221/0       SEEN-BY: 221/6 226/30 227/114 201 702 229/100 101 310 424 426 452       SEEN-BY: 229/550 664 700 981 1016 1017 240/5832 249/110 206 307 317       SEEN-BY: 249/400 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854 8125 301/1 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 633/280 770/1 2452/250 3634/12       PATH: 129/215 154/10 280/464 229/101 426           |
