Upon running mrc_client2.py (I've got python 2 installed), I get an error
about it unable to create a pid file (MRC 1.33a) under Windows 10 Pro 32Bit.
I set up the config file properly, as near as I can tell. What do I need to
do to enable SSL? I've got a private key and a certificate, if that will
work. I'm not sure how to do that under Mystic (I know I need to install cryptlib, is that all?).

ok i just installed MRC and had this same problem. If you open mrc.config.py and scrool down to:
# Pid file location
# This file is used for duplicate process checking
# Use a different location if you run multiple BBSes
# on the same machinepidfile = "/mystic/mrc_client.pid"

you need to add the folder that the .pid file will be located. You can put it anywhere you want. But you do need to have a folder added there.

I'm guessing this is you problem.

Well, Windows might require some tuning as I haven't tested it under Windows just yet, I'll have a Win32 install soon to start testing and adjusting but in the meantime, I guess I don't have a readily available recipe for you.

SSL depend on the Python SSL libraries, it should all be taken care of by Python, and unlike server-side, no key is required. It will use the trusted certificates in your machine truested store to validate the server certificate.

Cheers!

Sounds easy enough, but I don't know where the trusted store would be... I don't have keys stored in Windows and wouldn't know how... I'll try my
friend google.

Like mentioned, nothing extra to do. If you have an issue, it's something else than certificates unless you run an unsupported version of Windows where the certificates do not get updated anymore by the OS.

Cheers!

I don't use IIS, I use Apache, so I've got certificates in directories, same with icecast. I don't have certficates installed in windows. I tried to add the Certificate MMC and add my shsbbs_net.pem file, but that didn't do
anything at all as near as I could tell.

Leave it with me for now, I'll run some tests on my end and will adjust the doc accordingly.
