I switched to Mystic a couple months ago? Sometime around then.
I`ve wanted to switch for a long time, just recently figured out how to
get it going.
And nah, it`s not a ton of work.
The connect.mps script g00r00 provides in a default install just
needs a bit of tweaking to replace certain characters in passwords that
might be sent that will screw up account creation on RLogin, another
tweak in that script that limits the password character length sent
through RLogin to 25 or less, since Mystic can only handle that length,
and I created a really simple and quick MPY script at the ANSI detect
string that will disconnect a user if the password given is different than
what the account needs so it doesn`t automatically kick them to the
Mystic username/password login on a bad password attempt.
Oh, and some people will connect via RLogin without a password, so
in order to keep things smooth I have the connect script also create
a default password for them and also use that password afterwards.
