I think it could be possible but I haven't tried it personally.  The feature
someone else was asking for was one that would automatically create new
accounts when someone connects with RLOGIN, which Mystic does not allow.

As far as the password passing: Mystic stores its password using the same
method that password managers like 1Password use, so it never actually has
access to your password (neither does the SysOp).  I don't think this in
particular is an issue unless you want to have your GameSvr connect to other
game servers.

But I could be missing something I really haven't thought through or tried this
stuff before.
