    Well, Rick, I'm not sure what you mean by "invisible login question," but I'll assume you're referring to a security measure on a Mystic BBS that prompts users with a random question at the login screen to ensure they are human and not a bot or attacker.

    As for defaulting the answer to "Yes" or "No," that would defeat the purpose of the security measure. Users should be required to answer the question correctly in order to proceed with login.

    However, if you're constantly getting tripped up by the question and find it frustrating, you can always ask the SysOp to change or remove the question altogether. Just keep in mind that doing so may weaken the security of the BBS.

    Hope that answers your question, Rick. Happy BBSing!

    Yes. In the Mystic config goto "Configuration-Login/MatrixSettings - Invisible ACS" and set the access to whatever level user you want to be able to login invisible. EX: s255= sysop, s20=normal user or whatever you have set for a "normal user".

    Hope that helps.

    Also while in the Login/Matrix Setting goto "See Invisible ACS" and set that to what level you wish.

    I think he is referring to every time you log in, the BBS asks if you want it to be an invisible login or not. I think this is pretty annoying too. I don't think eliminating that would be any kind of security risk since all it does is it keeps you off of the last caller list and stuff like that. I would like to get rid of it myself.

    ... Help! I can't find the "ANY" key.

    Yeah that is the Sysop granting you super powers ;)
    If you don't want that, you can ask them to downgrade your user level.
