  • "Warning: you only have 5 minutes remaining"

    From Gary Ailes@1:129/328 to All on Sat Mar 6 17:14:19 2021
    I moved Mystic from Ubuntu to Win10 with seemingly no issues but one:

    When the users is prompted to enter their username, the first keypress will display prompt #134 "Warning: you only have 5 (and it always says 5) minutes remaining". The user hasn't even entered thier name yet so they system has no idea how much time they have left.

    I have no idea why and can't seem to track it down. Help!

    *** Quoting Gary Ailes from a message to All ***

    When the users is prompted to enter their username, the first
    keypress will display prompt #134 "Warning: you only have 5 (and it
    always says 5) minutes remaining". The user hasn't even entered
    thier name yet so they system has no idea how much time they have
    left.

    Load up ./mystic -cfg and "Configuration" -> "Logon/Matrix Settings" and set "Logon Time" to at least 10. That'll give them at least 5 minutes before they see that message.
