Also the OPs command doesn't use -server switch but maunderingcabal includes it.  Is the -server switch required to mine with a conf file or can you mine with it this switch and with no conf file?  I've been spending a lot of time fiddling with settings and no coin.

According to my testing, you need the -server switch and conf file to mine at all (which doesn't really make sense but oh well).

Not true, I don't have -server or a conf file and have mined 2 blocks in the last 4-5 hours.

That's weird. With just the -gen switch on Windows, I was getting 0 hashes per second, and the CPU usage was only ~6% (it wasn't even trying to mine).
