Well, it turns out that after I upgraded to 20050930, it ran the setup
w/out any native DLL's!! Awesome! After install, I had to copy
MFC42.dll from my windoze machine before it would run, but after that it
appears to be running great!
thanx!

Any chance you can upgrade that wine install to 20050930? I don't know
if Gentoo has this package in their repository, but if all else fails
you could always try a compile from source. There have been patches
against the wine tree that relate to some of the DCOM work that has
been going on, and this may get you a bit past where you are. There
are a number of hits through google for 'Watchguard WFS wine linux'
where people have claimed that it can be done (WFS on Linux using
Wine) but no mention of which version.
Having the dlls in system32 and just linking to system should be fine.
Out of curiosity, did you try an install before doing all the DCOM98
stuff? I'd be curious to see if wine provides any more output for you
than the single line message that it is returning right now. Normally
you would get a good deal of feedback in the terminal that should give
you SOMETHING to go on. I would try the install with a straight $wine
app.exe and from there we may be able to figure where it is failing
and then determine what, if any, native dlls need to be used.

Hello,
I am trying to use WINE (20050725-r1 on Gentoo Linux) to install/run
Watchguard's Firebox Management Software (WFS). The WFS installer
uses an installshield installer of course.. I've been looking thru
the FAQ, wiki, etc and have found info about DCOM98 needing to be
installed. I've tried a bunch of things so far, and here's where I
stand:
First, I tried getting DCOM98 and installing it using that. However,
the WFS software doesn't support Windows 98 (only NT, 2k, or XP) so
that didn't help too much (although it's the furthest the installer
ever got... only to tell me that it wouldn't continue :).
Since then, I've been trying to get the proper DCOM dll's from a
Windows 2000 (server) computer that I have. I've copied ole32.dll,
oleaut32.dll, rpcrt4.dll and comctrl32.dll from my Windoze 2k Server
to over to Wine, and used the regsrv32 program to register them.
(by the way, am I supposed to put them in system or system32?
Currently I have them in system32, with symlinks pointing to the
system dir....)
Then I try to run the setup program w/the following command:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n" wine
/download/watchguard/WFS73s.exe /setup
But that just gives me the error:
The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be launched.
(0x800768e4)
I've found similar errors in the Wiki, but not w/that error code that
I'm getting. Does anyone know what 0x800768e4 would mean..?
I also tried this command (which I found in the wiki):
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32=n,b;oleaut32=n,b;rpcrt4=n,b" wine
/download/watchguard/WFS73s.exe /setup
but it does the same thing, dies with the same error message... :(
I'm kinda stumped as to what to try next...
thx!
