Do you already have a BBS?  If so, What software and OS is it running?

But getting Mystic running on Linux is no drama at all, whether locally or on a
remote server.  I run Mystic on a Pi here, but because the Pi runs headless, it
might as well be on a remote server, since I only ever communicate with it (1)
via the BBS or (2) over SSH to a shell session.


... If you try to fail, and succeed, which have you done?
