No. It won;t be builtin. It will be a native regsrv32.exe. It is important to note that if I have ran IE installer as root (as root owns /usr/lib/wine/regsrv32.exe.so in my system), the installation would have overwritten this file and any fake windows tree which symlinks to it (I have a few) would be using the native version instead of the builtin. > >> However, some applications needs to replace this files. >> >> I noted this with the Internet Explorer Installer (5.01 sp1 and 6.0). >> If it cannot >> replace the c:\windows\system\regsrv32.exe file it will abort. >> >> However, as the c:\windows\system\regsrv32.exe is a symlink and wine >> has permition >> to move/delete this symlink, I would link to suggest that wine >> first delete the symlink file when an application tries to write on >> it. >> []'s Raul Dias
