• Question I found about aka

    From Nugax@21:1/107 to All on Sunday, June 25, 2017 18:53:00
    So,

    I have a node with a primary node and an aka. It's for my network.

    The primary node is what was sent for the packet, but on the client mystic install when I was trying to import messages I was getting a packet password error. I had the aka (or second not primary node set as the node in nodes on the client)

    Confused yet?

    Anyhow, it rejects with an invalid password because I think it's looking for
    a password for the node listed as primary - I know that's the node because
    that is the node printed in the mutil log with error.

    Is this expected? Or should a system that has dual akas know to use same password?
    It would transfer the packets fine as it read the aka and both node addresses.

    Sorry if this is unclear, it's kind of confusing.

    And,

    I changed the node for the hub on the bbs to the primary node and nothing
    else, and it sent and received and imported fine.

    Is this working as intended?
