   The No timeout flag disables the inactivity timeout (not time per day) but   
   there are some many possiblities as to why you might be getting disconnected,   
   anything from a bug to running out of time, to your ISP/router killing open   
   sockets because you're idle and it thinks they're stale (ie you would need a   
   telnet client if connected via telnet that sends NOOP to stay connected)...   
      
   If you are connected via ./mystic -l and it happens, that seems to point to   
   something else not client/router related.  If you ran out of time (ie minutes   
   per day) or were removed from inactivity, then it should have printed a   
   message or logged you out as you noted.   
      
   I don't really have a good explaination for you at the moment to be honest.   
      
   ... Help! I can't find the "ANY" key.
