File Base Settings
This section of the Mystic BBS Configuration System allows the SysOp to configure a number of settings that apply to the file base system in Mystic BBS. Here you can define how you wish duplicate file checking to be handled as well as configure various Access Command System (ACS) settings. There are areas here that you will want to update from their default settings.
This example screen is from a Windows based system and displays the standard 'out of the box' settings that ship with the default installation.

List Compression
This option, if toggled on, will compress file area numbers so they are always sequential during a file area list. So in a file area list, if a user does not have access to area number 2, then the next area that the user does have access to will become area number 2.
List Columns
This option allows the number of columns used in the file area lists to be configured. Valid options are 1 or 2 columns.

Import FILE_ID.DIZ
This option, if toggled on, will allow Mystic BBS to search all uploaded files for a FILE_ID.DIZ file. The FILE_ID.DIZ file is included in many archives and contains a description of the file. If this file is found, Mystic BBS will automatically read the description and use it as the file description in the file listing.
