wine users - Feb 2001 - Why I can't ICMP ping under wine?

Hi, All!

I have a program that monitors hosts on network...
(it's simply pings thoose hosts via ICMP)

Who knows, why wine sad on every ping:
'WARNING: Trying to use ICMP will fail unless running as root'
....
'$wine c:\\windows\\ping.exe x.x.x.x' - the same warning :(
'$ping x.x.x.x' - works well ....

& I don't want to run it under root ...

Who knows how to solve it?

regards, 
Valery.

That's because the standard Unix ping program is suid root (so it runs as
root). Look for yourself (ls -l /bin/ping).
