  • How to disable new SSH connections creating accounts

    From Thraka@21:2/150 to All on Sun Jun 19 13:12:18 2022
    I have a fresh mystic install running on a Win 7 VM. The SSH port is working fine and I can connect to it. However, when someone connects with a user that doesn't exist, it's automatically created and the user goes into the BBS. How do I prevent this and force them to use new/new as the user/pass?

    I believe the auto-creation was fixed in a rather late A48 prerelease (startup.mps/mpx was incorrectly included from A47 and onwards):

    - If you have started with a fresh A47 install and you did not intentionally
    install a startup.mps/mpx file then you should delete startup.mps and
    startup.mpx from your scripts directories. The default installation for A47
    was accidentally installing a startup.mps and startup.mpx in the script
    directory and its important to remove it if you started with a fresh A47.

    Although this "bug" was introduced in A47, it was present for a long time in A48, too. So make sure to delete startup.mps/mpx if you have it/them.
