• TicFilePwd error

    From Ghost@1:103/705 to All on Sun Jan 26 10:17:25 2025
    I upgraded to 3.20b the other day and yesterday I was looking at the error log. It is telling me that "configured TicFilePwd is empty, but Tic file has a password. I checked my tickit.ini file and the password is there. I ran echocfg and the password is in there, so I am wondering if there is another place the Tic file password is supposed to be in this new version. Any help?

    I seem to recall that this error happens when tickit.cfg is configured with 5D (domain-style) FTN addresses, but the sbbsecho.ini (where TicFilePwd is defined) has 4D addresses (or vice versa). Can you double check that?
