Hi All - I have wine installed from EPEL on CentOS 7.
My .exe is running except I dont seem to have network ? So I tried a ping command.
wine ping 192.168.1.1
0009:err:winediag:IcmpCreateFile Failed to use ICMP (network ping), this requires special permissions. Pinging 192.168.1.1 [192.168.1.1] with 32 bytes of data: PING: transmit failed. General failure. ^C0028:fixme:console:CONSOLE_DefaultHandler Terminating process 8 on event 0
wine ipconfig /all
output looks all fine.
Is there something special to do for network access under wine ???
Thanks,
Jerry

Try a test other than "ping". "ping" must be set-uid root or have appropriate capabilities indicated in the filesystem in order to operate:
$ getcap /usr/bin/ping /usr/bin/ping = cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+p
"wine" would need the same, which isn't advisable. Generally, you shouldn't expect Windows ping to work. Everything that doesn't need access to create raw network frames should.
