   Hi! I've tossed up a Mystic BBS 1.12 A47 system on a Ubuntu 22.04/amd64 system   
   that I had spare. The biggest issue that I'm having at the moment is in   
   getting SSH up and running. (Telnet works fine.)   
      
   I've set up the servers section to allow up to 20 nodes, and enabled Telnet on   
   IPV4 with a maximum of 10 nodes, address 0.0.0.0 port 2323. All good there.    
      
   I've enabled SSH on IPV4 with a maximum of 10 nodes, address 0.0.0.0 port   
   2222. I've also followed the instructions here:   
      
   http://wiki.mysticbbs.com/doku.php?id=cryptlib   
      
   To setup cryptlib and place it in the /usr/lib folder. I've tried cryptlib   
   3.4.5 and 3.4.6. It took a little jiggering to get 3.4.5 to compile. 3.4.6   
   compiled right out of the box.    
      
   I've also stopped and started the BBS, disabled and enabled the protocols,   
   etc., etc.   
      
   Each time, I can't connect via SSH. I've tried NetRunner on Windows, PuTTY on   
   Windows, and ssh from the local command line of the system running the BBS.   
      
   Unlike other reports I've seen, nothing shows up in the mis.log or any of the   
   node#.log files, so I don't really have any errors to go on either. With PuTTY   
   or NetRunner it just sits there for a bit and disconnects. With ssh from the   
   local command line,    
   I get a connection but again it just sits there and doesn't prompt for a   
   password or anything. I can hit enter a bunch of times.    
      
   (Note that if I put an invalid port, it refuses connection right away, so   
   *something* is happening.)   
      
   Any ideas on how to resolve this? I could try compiling various versions of   
   cryptlib, but people keep saying 3.4.5 is good for this configuration, and   
   also I don't even know if I need to "reset" the system somehow after replacing   
   it.
