    Hi All,

    I'm trying to configure up Mystic to talk to Synchronet to link into
    Dove-Net. I followed the synchronet wiki to get an account configured on Vertrauen for QWK but when I poll there are never messages waiting. Does anyone have a good how-to they can point me to for setup? Right now I'm just trying to get a single "General Discussion" base to work.

    I'm guessing this is doable because there is QWK networking in Mystic and I think I read somewhere about someone else connecting in with Mystic.

    Thanks.
    Rich

    Hello Flynn,

    I'm trying to configure up Mystic to talk to Synchronet to link into Dove-Net. I followed the synchronet wiki to get an account configured on Vertrauen for QWK but when I poll there are never messages waiting.

    As I recall the problem had to do with the file that Mystic reads/looks for on the VERT server. I had to change the filename and/or case to get it to work. I will look back and the responses that I got from Rob on the subject to verify.

    Thanks Jeff, I got it sorted - got on a chat with Digital Man and he had me working very quickly. Just had to understand the filename and how his board handles the file. Apparently it looks for vert.qwk and his board will
    generate the file at the time the client asks for it. Only problem now is
    that I am getting disconnects because I think it's timing out before the
    bundle gets created. I just solved that by doing a double poll and then it gets it the second time.
