Yes... anything put in mystic needs to match pretty much exactly or mystic may
(or may not as more likely) choose to use it.  Quite frankly I think this is a
good security measure.

But mystic does tend to break traditions by making them case sensative.  One
other thing that helped with connection refusal is ticking the setting when
node x:xxx/xxx polls in don't present any AKAs but the one they are connecting
to.  This seemed to make it behave a bit more too.
