For some reason I know this is in the archives of the mailing list and I would like to go ahead and voice my opion on Cygwin: Cygwin is a great port of Linux kernal to Win32 and WinNT kernals. It is great help when you develop applications on Linux platforms. However it does eat up a great amount of ram usage and is susptible to more security breachs then a linux box in it self. I would recommend to anyone who wants to develop a mud on a win* system that they use MSVC 6.0 (and I can't wait from MSVC .net to come out ^_^) Now to the problem: I used to host a mud on my system that used cygwin (I run a Win2k box btw) and about every half day/whole day it would crash with a sygfault. This may be your problem also. He had patched all of the basic olc stuff (oasis/dg scripts/etc.) and for some reason it wouldn't stay up without sygfaulting. I did a search on it and found it in the mailing list archives somewhere. I can however assume it is a sygfault.
