wine users - Sep 2001 - No Server Browsing in Half Life / CS / Return to Wolfenstein

For some reason TCP/IP apps (Ultima Online, mIRC, etc.) work fine, but
when I go to browse servers for Internet Games in Half Life /
Counterstrike / etc.. can't get a server list, no error, just 0 servers.
No, there are no filters on or anything and I hit update and refresh and
still a no go; Yes, Everything works fine in Windows.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.

I had it working recently, then Win2000AS ate my Linux drives, after a
reinstall I am having the same problem with wine.  As I understand it it
is a bug in the latest build of wine, hopefully they will get it fixed
soon.

Do you have a firewall running?? If so, you will need to loosen your rules
to allow established and related connections for a range of unprivileged
ports. HL CS  makes connections all over the place so you'll need to
see what your firewall logs.

Fixed mine (Half Life) by using a slightly older version of wine, here
is the link, just ./tools/wineinstall the older version and it should
work:
