Hello all. I have a question. Would it be possible to configure a mystic message area as both a FTN network and a QWK network? I notice on the
message configuration screen there is an option for QWK ID and Network? If
it is possible, how would I get people wanting to poll my qwk hub to do do
with mystic? Thanks.

In theory it is possible. I haven't done it myself, because I have a Synchronet board, which makes an excellent QWK hub, and very easy to administer. You would have to ensure there is no possibility for dupe loops, and that only specific echoes are offered to QWK nodes. Also have to make sure nodes are connected via FTN or QWK only.

Give it a whirl. If you happen to run into trouble hubbing both protocols, I'm happy to offer my services as a QWK hub on Synchronet. It's working very well for VKRadio.

I heard this does not work at the current time but had not tested it out
myself so would say give it a go for yourself and see if does work! :)

Cheers!

No probs, it's there if you want it. :) All I'd need from you is to add a section in your application for QWK nodes and pass on the requested login and password to me, so I can setup the account. I've updated my VKRadio application to include QWK, if you want some ideas, the changes to my form are simple and obvious. :)

Well, I have an alternative on standby if Mystic won't do it on Necro's setup. :)

Hi Necromaster!

Would it be possible to configure a mystic message area as both a FTN network and a QWK network?

You are aware that MSGID generation in the Mystic betas is broken?

CU, Ricsi
