wine configuration

[Anjo]

I'm dual boothing MDK9.0 and WIN2k, and new to wine. I'm having some trouble installing. I downloaded the 20020804 rpm and installed on
MDK9.0, but I cant seem to get it to work. I edited the /etc/wine/config file to have /mnt/nt as the windows directory and c://winnt replacing c://windows for all the options in the [wine] section of the config file. But when I try to run the program I get an error for libntdll.dll.so saying permission denied. I checked /etc/ld.so.conf and the list of paths has the location of libntdll.dll.so (a link to /usr/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so). I've read some stuff about ./tools/winesetup or ./tools/wineconfig and I'm a bit confused as to how I should be going about configuring it. Any tips would be helpful. Thanks

No advice, just same feelings of angst.

I have tried to get Wine to work as well and have setup the config file, etc.

When I try to get Wine to call a Windows app it tells me it can't find the file...

I got rid of the link /usr/lib/libntdll.dll.so, which linked to /usr/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so and just put ntdll.dll.so in /usr/lib/ as libntdll.dll.so and that solved the original error. Now I get a whole slew of others...

Anjo,

To my knowledge, Wine works best with DLLs and programs that can be supported by Windows 9x. Not with those from Win2k...
