If you want to switch on the resigning in crafty, perhaps you could use
InBetween (By Odd Gunnar Malin -- http://home.online.no/~malin/sjakk/) to filter
out the "computer" command from WinBoard that tells the engine that it is
playing a computer.  If crafty doesn't know it is playing a computer, then it
wouldn't switch off resigning.

Cheers, Tim.
