Hiya, I've posted this 'enigma' on the newsgroup : http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.emulators.ms-windows.wine/browse_thread/thread/57dcb7531ebfb529/65018c77a5e58651#65018c77a5e58651 The answers were pretty rare so I post the problem here, too. " I'm getting connection problems with an application run under Wine which isn't acting like that under a native Windows environment. The application is a game client called Ragnarok Online, fully updated, using a private server. The problem comes when I try to connect to the server. The client seems to try connecting to the server then fails. But it seems that the problem isn't with the server because no connection attempt are logged on the server when I try connecting. I investigated a bit and I got some uncommon warnings when I enable winsock's calls tracing : trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\advapi32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\gdi32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\user32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\windows\\system\\ole32.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\dinput.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\winmm.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\binkw32.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\windows\\system\\msvcrt.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\windows\\system\\shlwapi.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\comctl32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\shell32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\ddraw.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\ijl15.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\iphlpapi.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\ws2_32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\mss32.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\imm32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\cps.dll" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\granny2.dll" : native trace:loaddll:MODULE_LoadModule16 Loaded module "krnl386.exe" : builtin trace:loaddll:MODULE_LoadModule16 Loaded module "system.drv" : builtin trace:loaddll:MODULE_LoadModule16 Loaded module "GDI.EXE" : builtin trace:loaddll:MODULE_LoadModule16 Loaded module "USER.EXE" : builtin trace:loaddll:MODULE_LoadModule16 Loaded module "keyboard.drv" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\x11drv.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\wineoss.drv" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\msacm32.dll" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\msacm.drv" : builtin trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\midimap.drv" : builtin trace:winsock:DllMain 0x417d0000 0x1 0x1 trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\Mp3dec.asi" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"C:\\Program Files\\Gravity\\RO\\Mssfast.m3d" : native trace:loaddll:load_dll Loaded module L"c:\\windows\\system\\dsound.dll" : builtin [There the client interface load] err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_LINEPATTERN (0000000a) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_MONOENABLE (0000000b) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_ROP2 (0000000c) value : 0000000d ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_PLANEMASK (0000000d) value : ffffffff ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_LASTPIXEL (00000010) value : 00000001 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_ZVISIBLE (0000001e) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_EDGEANTIALIAS (00000028) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_RANGEFOGENABLE (00000030) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_EXTENTS (0000008a) value : 00000000 ! err:ddraw:set_render_state Unhandled dwRenderStateType D3DRENDERSTATE_VERTEXBLEND (00000097) value : 00000000 !

I don't have any windows installation on my computer but this game client works quiet flawlessly on Windows. I don't think my firewall is related to that... Other programs like the game client updater, download managers and others tools can connect to web servers. If anyone has an idea. This trace is quiet strange : trace:winsock:WSASocketA af=2 type=1 protocol=0 protocol_info=(nil) group=0 flags=0x1 And the others are uncommon : trace:winsock:WS_select read (nil), write 0x408af9a4, excp (nil) timeout 0x408afaa8 trace:winsock:WS_select read 0x408aee68, write (nil), excp (nil) timeout 0x408aef6c Weird, Weird..." I tried to use native WinSock DLL but the result is almost the same. Almost, the error message "Unable to connect to server" coming instantly... I wonder if Wine can use native WinSock DLL ? I configured Wine using the Winetools and emacs for customizing Wine's behaviour with some softwares ([AppDefaults] sections).
