i have installed a clean copy of ubuntu 8.10 64bit i installed a program called the Bar Ilan Responsa Project which uses a license from a local network server, using wine. this program works perfectly for my friend who has ubuntu 8.10 32bit. alas, when i try running the program i always get the message: "no answer from NetHasp license manager (15)" (this is the error you get in windows if you try running the program when you are not connected to the network) (the first times i installed the program the installation didn't go well and a few dll files weren't installed. i found out that this happened because i was trying to install from a location on my old windows (ntfs) partition. this was fixed when i copied the original installation folder to my ext3 partition, and installed from there) i thought the cause might be the 64bit OS, so i removed it and installed kubuntu 8.10 32bit instead. when that didn't work, i installed gnome and tried installing and running the program from there. didn't help. i tried doing this both in wine 1.0.1 and 1.1.9 (which both work for my friend) i also installed various packages such as: winbind, smbfs, ntlm, cabextract (for ies4linux), samba... i also tried switching windows versions in winecfg. we copied the entire .wine folder form my friends computer to mien, and tried running the program from there. as you can assume, non of this helped. we tried comparing the output we get in terminal when running the program. this is my friends output (which works): Code: :~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/ResponsaCD14$ env LANG=he_IL.utf8 WINEPREFIX="/home/a/.wine" wine "C:\PROG~FBU\RESP~MT1\RESPONSA.EXE" wine: Unhandled privileged instruction at address 0x451e1a (thread 0014), starting debugger...

(we had to cut "works" because it was too big (32 mb) so we left about the number of lines in "dosntwork" and deleted the lines from there on) we can't find any reason why the progarm works for my friend and not for me. can you please help?
