| I think so the problems is cygwin sockets, where I today notice another problem: with smaugfuss (1.4a?) can accept only 56/58 player connections!!!
Under linux is the same? [I had create a script that create a random player connecting to the mud and the limit is 56/58 connections].
Bye :(
ps: The smaug distro for cygwing, if the conditions are this, isn't good enough. Pardon me samson. I intended that nobody can run realy a mud under windows. | | Top |

| Matteo, if this is a limitation of Cygwin sockets, then the problem has very little, perhaps nothing, to do with the SMAUG(fuss) code.
Under Linux, SMAUG(+fuss) can definitely accept more than 58 connections.
Like I said, this is very likely to be a problem of Cygwin -- not Windows, actually, but the Cygwin implementation under Windows. (The Cygwin folks say over and over again that their system is not meant to be for production software as several things aren't quite right yet.) |

There is no real obligation on the part of the SMAUG distributors, when distributing free software, to put a lot of work into making it work on all operating systems (eg. Windows, Mac, etc.).
Running under Cygwin is fine for testing new code (eg. testing a new area) before putting it into production. But as I said before, if you plan on running a MUD for dozens of simultaneous users, you are better off using Linux. |

Yes, i don't want missing of respect about cygwin project: it's a great things in any case! Probably with my bad english I don't show my opinion.
In any case... If someone in SmaugFuss has the problem that I illustrated in this post because cygwin-socket has some limitation, you could try to use INTERIX (Free M$ SFU35SEL file) instead of cygwin. But you can use this only with some Windows OS (XP Pro, NT, and ...).
I tested the smaugFuss in Interix opening more than 300 connections in one same without problems.
You need to add crypt and some other things, than run perfecly! (seems...)
Probably with interix works because in this case the smaug run like a native linux file.
Bye

| PS: the mud under INTERIX speed up very very very much!
Cygwin seems very slow in compare.
