        If I get a bit of time, I could actually write up a patch to make
circlemud be a service in windows (nt, 2000, xp only of course).

        It's not really that terribly difficult.

        As for windows95-98, it's just not meant to run a server full
time, i'd just use the autorun-like solutions that can be found by
scanning the archives.  None of them are perfect solutions but they all
have their own varying degrees of success.
