I have been trying to get SSH to work with my Mystic BBS, the pi version. Problem is is that I'm new to Linux and the instructions, or what I thought were instructions did not yield a good result.

Can someone assist me in how to install the files needed so that I may use SSH on my BBS??

Thanx

I have SSH working on my Pi. I just followed the directions here and it seemed to work for me:

Make sure you have the programs needed to compile installed:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential manpages-dev

Download cryptlib from the authors:

cd /tmp
wget https://cryptlib-release.s3-ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/cryptlib345.zip

Unzip the archive and build:

unzip -a cryptlib345.zip
sudo make shared

Move the file into place:

sudo mv libcl.so.3.4.5 /usr/lib/libcl.so

Now as long as SSH is enabled in ./mustic -cfg, you should be able to restart mis with that in place and it should just work.

Thank you Jay... followed your instructions and had it operational in a few minutes.
