This is just a shot in the dark about this problem... My thought is that when using the unlimited bits code, you're accessing memory addresses that normal "DOS" programs don't address, causing the system to crash and giving you a dump. I've never run a mud in Windows through cygwin, but it's about the only thing that I can think of right now. I'll pull some more references on this end and see if I can come up with a better explanation and a possible fix.

Nobody told me I had to go into console and type what you suggested before run (port #). The only problem is its not crashing.. Or is that a good thing.. I can't imagine running the mud in cygwin the whole time or on windows just to utilize unlimited bits. Why is it that it once compiled it will not run under windows? Well thats my question. Thanks for the responses.
