I’m setting up a dockerised Mystic BBS install and, because I need to
persist config settings, I need to know where all the settings made by
mystic -cfg are stored. I’d appreciate any guidance on what might need
to be stored on a volume outside of the container.

I don't use docker a lot, and I'm sure someone with more knowledge
than me will reply but... the Synchronet docker container links its
files to an outside sub-directory. The \~/sbbs folder is linked to
something like \~/sbbs-docker/sbbs.... I bet the same could be done
with a Mystic docker instance.

And that's the way I'd like it most, too, as you're constantly
changing files within the \~/mystic directory...

Anyway, I'd try to link \~/mystic from within the docker container to
some \~/mystic-docker/mystic or similar...

It might be helpful to checkout the supported Synchronet docker setup
as I remember it does that when you install.

Yeah, I'm already persisting all the data folders outside the
container. I want the executables to remain inside and once the BBS is
fully configured will move some of the config files back inside, too.
I'm just trying to decide which ones.

Have you tried over at the Mystic BBS sub here?
