General Settings

This section of the Mystic BBS Configuration System allows the SysOp to configure a number of general settings that apply to the overall BBS system. 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.

Sysop Name

Change this to reflect the user account you have created for your SysOp account.

If entered all users logging in to your BBS will need to enter this password before being presented with the login prompt. It's useful to set this if you run a closed system or need to limit access quickly for a period of time.
