After having installed wine on FreeBSD and used it successfully for some applications, I've found that it would be useful to run an application that needs a network connection to elsewhere on the network. It is not apparent to me how I would go about configuring TCP/IP in wine, and I've not found anything at winehq.com that explains this. I've tried adding entries to system.reg for TCP/IP but these are ineffective. Yet I read postings elsewhere from people who have done this successfully on Linux, and even a few postings from people who have done successfully with FreeBSD in the past (although the technique for doing so was unmentioned).

Can someone suggest a resource/how-to that would educate me on how to do this for FreeBSD?

For reference, any attempt to use ipconfig gets these messages...

If you are using builtin L"WMI.dll", try using the native one instead.

...and any attempt to ping gets a wine debugger after the following messages...

fixme:seh:EXC_RtlRaiseException call (from 0x1001949) to unimplemented function KERNEL32.dll.SetThreadUILanguage

I did take the suggestion mentioned above from the error message (I specified 'builtin' for WMI.dll), but this had no effect. My wine version is 20050419.

I've used apps that do things on the internet like download updates automatically. I know nothiing of a network setup, maybe you have a dll missing or unsupported function in your app. WINE is not an emulator and does not create network connections. It translates between win32 binaries and unix. What you describe sounds like vmware or something that is not configured.
