In a nutshell it won't work on this mud with autoconfigure. It claims it is configured right correctly identifying the room name, exits, and description, however when I move around in map mode nothing happens. I just have the one room I started with by configuring it.

room name--->A Massive Sand Dune
exits------> [Exits: north]
Descrip----->Somehow you managed to make your way through the howling winds
of the sandstorm, and clamber up on this sand dune. You can see the
storm to the north of you, and presumably the pyramid is somewhere
beyond it. Nothing but flat, featureless, open dunes of sand lie in
every other direction.

Why does it correctly identify these parts and then just do nothing when I move around in map mode? Should I adjust the configuration settings? If so, how?

It sounds like your directions settings have been erased. By default zMud comes with 2 classes of directions. Open your settings editor by hitting CTRL-G in your main characters window. Make sure Show Inheritted is checked in the view menu. Expand the System folder in the class panel, then look for the classes named "Directions" and "DirectionsDiag". They should each contain 4 direction settings, if they don't exist you will have to create them.
