I'm new to most of this but here goes. I have an app which I am trying to get working under wine, it uses .net and attempts to access the internet but fails. I know that the internet is accessible as I have gotten Firefox under wine working just fine, plus ofcourse outside of wine everything works fine. I am running Kubuntu 9.04 btw. Does anyone have any ideas as to how I might debug this or any suggestions about what I might have missed? Stuart
What's the terminal output? Have you installed .NET or Mono? If either, have you done so through winetricks? Does there seem to be a difference if you use Mono instead of .NET (or vice-versa)?

I am still playing with this and trying things. The app on native windows uses .net1 and yes I have installed Firefox under Wine and it works and surfs the internet just fine. I know the author of the program and I have my suspicions that it may use Internet Explorer functions 'under the covers' in which case this may well not work. I'll do some more digging and testing.... Stuart
