The mfg does not have a link to download the software (over 500MB). Users are forced to request a disk from them. http://www.ecabinetsystems.com and click on the software request link and fill out a form. (its still free) If by wininet you mean the winetricks wininet, I did install that. Otherwise I do not know what you mean. I am not only a nood, but I am blind. I do not see a means of attaching the log. Its small. sorry, I know this is not what you prefer. john@john-laptop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Thermwood/eCabinet Systems$ wine ECABINETS.exe fixme:advapi:RegisterEventSourceA ((null),"FirebirdGuardianDefaultInstance"): stub fixme:advapi:RegisterEventSourceW (L"",L"FirebirdGuardianDefaultInstance"): stub fixme:advapi:ReportEventA (0xcafe4242,0x0001,0x0000,0x000000d4,(nil),0x0001,0x00000000,0x7e102e30,(nil)): stub fixme:advapi:ReportEventW (0xcafe4242,0x0001,0x0000,0x000000d4,(nil),0x0001,0x00000000,0x13efb0,(nil)): stub err:eventlog:ReportEventW L"The registry information is missing.\r\nPlease run the Firebird Configuration Utilitto launch the server thread. errno : 1055" fixme:advapi:DeregisterEventSource (0xcafe4242) stub fixme:ras:RasEnumConnectionsA (0x630607a8,0x1e667bc,0x6305f610),stub! fixme:ras:RasEnumConnectionsA RAS support is not implemented!
