Any recommendations?

 

I'm more interested in creating forts, dungeons, etc than overland maps.

 

I downloaded the demo of Dunjinni but I am struggling to get it to run. What other suggestions are there?

If you are a little artistically inclined, you can use GiMP and some tutorials to produce great results. This site basically covers all the techniques I've ever needed.

I use Campaign Cartographer. Was a very easy learning curve, since I've worked on AutoCAD for the past 20 years.

This isn't software, but these are awesome anyway!

 

I use these for randomly mapping dungeons, and use the pdfs with roll20:

And I'm really looking forward to city and village encounters when these come out:
