A snapshot. http://cygwin.com/snapshots/ > Did you try to use the mapping feature of nmap? I transfer from a VMS What's nmap? I never used it.

I'd need *specific* instructions to reproduce the crash. What commands with which options do I have to use how? Can I do this at all or do I need non-Cygwin commands to reproduce it? Do I have to have a VMS machine? Otherwise it would be much more efficient if you'd track down the bug. You have the inetutils sources, so you can build a debugging version of ftp with all symbols in it.
