Greetings, I'm new to wine (and linux in general) but I've found my experience with both to be very enjoyable and I'd like to convert over fully to being a penguin. In order to do this though, I must have functional a required app on my home network. This program basically monitors my satellite internet usage and informs my entire network how much remaining usage we have (there's a hard limit of 425MB per 24 hours that we have to stay under). Unfortunately, my distro of choice (Puppy) doesn't have its perl compiled with threads (Whatever that means) so I can't get the linux version to run... so I'm hoping wine will be my solution. Long story short, I'm trying to run the hnFAPMon.exe application available from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hnfapmon It installed fine, but when I try to run it: Code: Unable to create socket on port 6000! fixme:ntdll:NtLockFile I/O completion on lock not implemented yet fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:MSVCRT__sopen : pmode 0x01b6 ignored fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf fixme:msvcrt:msvcrt_fdtoh wtf I copied a legit copy of msvcrt.dll from my winXP install into the windows/system32 directory of the wine install, but the result was the same. I'm guessing that the msvcrt issue is unrelated to why hnFAPMon can't create and open a socket for communication on my network. Anyone have any suggestions?
