Thank you L. Rahyen, your advice was very helpful!
Rather than staying with the ies4linux directory structure though, I elected to move its files under .wine since the only thing I'm doing with Wine under that user ('winduhs', a verrry non-privileged user) is IE6. To move the ies4linux files & directories under .wine the only change I had to make was to the ie6 startup script; there are no settings in any of the registry on ini files in the ies4linux directories.
OK, so using winecfg I can change from a Win98 schema to a Win2000 one, but why does IE6 still identify itself as IE4 when I go to bellsnwhistles.com/bells.html? Now that I have Wine set to Win2000 it still says I'm running IE4 (although now on Win NT 5).
I think that I was previously running it as Win98 explains some of the squirrelly behavior. My ActiveX control needs mfc42.dll, and the one I provided is from Win2k. Unbeknownst to me, Wine was running Win98 mode, but it no longer complained about needing mfc42.dll when I provided it, so Win98 was using a Win2k dll. Now that I have Wine set for Win2k, some problems have cleared up.
Here's something that still bothers me:
fixme:ras:RasEnumConnectionsW RAS support is not implemented! Configure program to use LAN connection/winsock instead!
... but it doesn't give a clue how to set to winsock.
I'm also seeing:
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk "RPCRT4.dll" failed to initialize, aborting
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\windows\\system32\\dw15.exe" failed, status c0000142
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x80000c64 at address 0x701069b2 (thread 001c), starting debugger...
err:dbghelp:pe_load_dbg_file -Unable to peruse .DBG file rpcrt4.dbg ("\xd0\xc2\xf2~\x90\x80\xf1~HQ\xc3{")
... which I will give it tomorrow.
