    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.
