Hello Jia Hui,

The difference is that the stand-alone liftOver program has a default of 
-minMatch=0.95.  The web-based liftOver program generally has a default 
minMatch of 0.95 for same-species liftOvers and 0.1 for 
different-species liftOvers.

I tried your example lift with a setting of -minMatch=0.1 in addition to 
the -multiple option, and I was able to reproduce the web-based result:

liftOver -multiple -minMatch=0.1 oldFile hg18ToMm8.over.chain newFile 
unMapped

cat newFile
chrX    164652840       164688071       -       1
chrX    164684015       164685253       -       2
chrX    161953905       161958507       -       3
chrX    161957814       161958204       -       4
chrX    161958006       161958277       -       5

Please let us know if you have any further questions.
