Thank you James for your help, now I am getting somewhere. I typed: BASH ./configure at the BASH prompt and it ran configure, checking everything, then tried creating ./config.status where I got the error: ./configure: /bin/sh: No such file of directory In the doc directory of CircleMUD, in the Cygnus readme file, it says to mount the directory by typing: mount c:\cygnus\cygwin-d20\h-i586-cygwin32\bin /bin This the brings up the error: warning: /bin does not exist! mount failed: Device or resource busy Why is this not working? I opened the conf.status file in Notepad and the first thing it said was: #! /bin/sh # Generated automatically by configure. But /bin/sh was not generated automatically otherwise I would not have got the previous error message. I am completely baffled by this and I am going to give up soon and stick to building, but I don't have anything to test new zones on. Please, please, please can somebody help me!

Sorry for being such a pain in the neck, I only want to get the damn thing up and running! +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
