Any ideas on how to fix this? This just started today, I deleted and installed the server with all the default files and it still crashes/restarts my computer.
Computer restarts itself after I connect to my server

This seems to happen to some people and not others. The default files (get rid of the existing directory before reinstalling) shouldn't crash.
Probably it is caused by some problem in the server or an area that causes an "access violation". The code in question doesn't get used until you connect, which is why it happens on a connect.
All I can suggest, if you are using Cygwin, is to use gdb to find out exactly where the problem is, and fix it. Search for 'gdb' in this forum and see what others have done.

Im having a similiar problem myself. Though it only seems to happen when i use my ZMud to connect to the server. I can connect thru telnet or MUSHclient with no problems at all. I can connect to other muds using my ZMud with no problems. Any ideas or suggestions on what is causing this would be appreciated.
zMUD would probably do telnet negotiation slightly differently to another client.
A while ago crashes were because of some problem with too many races for an internal array or something like that.
Exactly which version of the server are you using? One from this site? Precompiled or compiled yourself? What OS are you running the server on? Is it the one with MXP in it?

Im running the version downloaded from this site and after a reading more on the forum i went and downloaded Cgywin.
Im running Win98SE and now with Cygwin everything seems to be working fine im able to connect using ZMud and have no crashes as of yet. Im still pretty new to coding in this format and im wanting to slowly learn how.
