since the luasocket is trying to open the lua dll it will resolve the
names of the functions it needs soley from within the dll, if so it
should work?"
This most definately will not work. Any static/global variables in one library will not resolve to the other. You can successfully link and run together, but you will have problems such as random crashes if the lua libraries rely on static/global variables stored in the library.
To link correctly you'll need to link luasocket.dll and wxLua.dll against the same lua50.dll.
I have the same problem with wxLua , but apparently the CVS version fixes that. Hurray for lua 5.1 standardization of binary modules :)

I don't know? Does the linker tell you about unresolved symbols and
their names? Can you just link directly to luasocket if you compile it
as a lib as well?

I don't think you can use the dll with a project like wxLua that has
already linked with the exact same .lib, but I could be wrong. Perhaps
since the luasocket is trying to open the lua dll it will resolve the
names of the functions it needs soley from within the dll, if so it
should work? In any case trying to mix and match lua versions will
never work. The 2.6.2 wxLua uses a fairly vanilla 5.0.2, the changes
made for wxLua should not affect the normal operation of the
lua_State.
IIRC you wanted to stay with 5.0, but if you use wxLua from CVS or a
snapshot you can use wxLua as a dll as well, but it's lua 5.1.
Good luck,
