Ok ..  this is on the right track .. There is several folders there that contain your FTN node names.  please look in the Mystic/echomail/out directory ... inside each one of the folders there please check for any .BSY files..  Also,  in the Mystic/semaphore directory, there should be three files (maybe)  mis.bsy and nodeinfo.now 

If you shut down the Mystic -Server and look again these file should go away. If not Delete them all. 

Then restart and they should be recreated clean. 

I am betting the Linux box got a reboot with the Mystic running and left a .BSY open.  This has happened to be on a Windows box.
