Alrite, I downloaded the Dawn of Time codebase and got it compiled and running using this guide:

Dawn of Time isn't necessarily the codebase I will be using, I just decided to try it out because it seemed interesting and had a good guide for setting it up.

I used Cygwin, got it all compiled, and when I got to the last step of the guide (typed ./dawn 4000 to start it up on port 4000) it gave me a bunch of output ending in this:

Then I opened up Zmud, and started a new session using my ip address as the host and 4000 as the port. It couldn't connect.

So I went back to Cygwin and typed: telnet <my ip address> 4000
And I got this output:
My firewall is off, and it's set to allow port 4000 anyways. I am running Vista. WHAT DID I DO WRONG?!?
