This is a frequently asked question and the cause is usually that 5D addressing was used in either tickit.cfg or sbbsecho.ini and not in the other. Try adding or removing the domain part of the FTN address from one or the other configuration (i.e. 1:103/705@fidonet is not the same address as 1:103/705).

I'll give that a try. I don't have tickit.cfg file though, bit in the sbbsecho.ini the uplinks are in 5D format.

Sorry, correction: tickit.ini

Your tickit config is contained in ../ctrl/tickit.ini

Please note the warning in there that you must define *EITHER* a "Dir"
or a "Path" keyword for each connected file area, but *NOT* both. Very
common config error...

Also double-verify that you have a TIC password defined in the uplink
node's configuration block in sbbsecho.ini

I edited the sbbsecho.ini and removed the @fidonet, @fsxnet and that fixed that issue. Ran TICKIT and all passwords run fine.
