wine users - Feb 2009 - Is there a hope for Serv-u 7.0.4.1?

I tried several thing but on the end I get no results,
first as a normal user you cant do nothing in wine with the serv-u, second you
need to be logged as a root, third, in winxp compatibility mode serv-u would
just explode with the error:
fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 4132
(SPI_GETDROPSHADOW)

But when I had set it to the win2k emulation I got some results:

And after I tried to make some changes, serv-u just get to the "coma
state", I mean when it tried to save settings it just get in some sleeping
state and I have no solutions after that, here is the picture:

The last line in the terminal output was:

>  %S: %s_create_dc_and_bitmap%S: %s_create_dc_and_bitmap%S:
%s_create_dc_and_bitmap%S: %s_create_dc_and_bitmap%S: %s_create_dc_and_bitmap%S:

Can you explain why you have to be logged in as root?  Is there a specific error
you receive while running this program that states you have to be root or is it
that the program will not run unless you are an Administrator?  The first is a
Linux level admin, the second is the generic name for the Windows Administrator.
If it is the second, this program will not successfully run under Wine.  Running
Wine as root is highly discouraged, but in some cases necessary.

This is not an error condition, but rather functionality that does not currently
exist in Wine.

What is this in reference to?  Is there an error message before this one?

Follow the old thread. It needs to bind to a low port. Root is
required, unless POSIX permissions are used.

I hate programs that do that.  Of course, this maybe to get around firewalls and
proxies.  Not good coding practices.  Use of POSIX is one way around this. 
I'll look at the orginal thread on-line.  Got a date range for it?

Wine does not support windows netowrk in any way shape of form. You should look
at Samba and it's tools.

James please fix your e-mail client not to fragment threads. Or not use e-mail
interface all together.
