tcsh startup & ERROR????

Ok, downloaded the already compiled Windows version earlier this week. Now have decided to go the cgywin route instead. Got everything compiled and I now have this problem.

$ tcsh startup &
[1] 2152

Justin@dreamscape ~/smaug/dist/sr
$ limit: Command not found.
/
bash: /: is a directory

After I hit enter it drops down to the line after Justin@dreamscape and freezes there, I have to enter the / to get it to "unfreeze".

Now, I went into startup to take a look at it and found this line.

limit stack 1024k

The error is limil: Command not found, so I did this

# limit stack 1024K

Just to see what happens then..... this

$ tcsh startup &
[2] 3800

And it returns me to the bash prompt.

The server runs fine (with no errors I might add thanks to your great instructions) using smaug.exe from the area dir. But this startup thing bugs me...... I just want it to work, and I also want the restarts to work right also.

Also, it shouldn't be a big deal to copy over the proto.are and pfiles from my windows version into the smaug/dist dir should it??? I don't want to loose the OLC stuff I've already done....

Thanks for all the help so far, and I hope you can help me with my "little" problem....

Ok, five minutes late I have my answer. I figured out the server was running, in the background *doh* "punch self"
That's what I get for not understand what was going on. I was expecting to still see the bootup info, then get a prompt AFTER, not see nothing at all. Just shoot me......


BTW, seems to be working fine.....

This has been covered before... see for instance:
