Hi,

First of all, greeting. I'm a reboot. I used to run a RA/FD based BBS in
Denmark in the 90s and had long plans, to bring it back to life. As I've been
using Linux for over 2 decades now, Mystic looked like a good choice. I loved
RA, but I didn't want to go back to DOS.

Either way, long story short, it seems there is a problem with SSH and IPv6,
when it comes to Mystic.

I'm running Mystic 1.12 A45, cryptlib3431. Cryptlib 345 was crashing Mystic
on startup, so I discarded that.

What is happening is, that if I log in using IPv4, the password gets
recognized correctly.

If I log in using IPv6, Mystic does not recognize the password and eventually
blacklists me.

Has anyone seen this behavior or can replicate it ?

-M
