One of the problems seems to be in the /etc/hosts file. Whenever I set my IP (in /etc/hosts) to hamachi's one, I can see him but he can't see me. The opposite happens if I set my IP to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) (that is, he sees me, I don't see him). > > So does anybody know where the problem is?

That message is from Wine...Wine has 4 debugging message types: err, fixme, warn, trace and message. WINEDEBUG repects the first 4. MESSAGE is used very rarely, you just found one of the few times it is used :-). -- -Austin
