http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19029 Summary: ICMP ping requires application to run as root Product: Wine Version: 1.1.19 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: inconsiderateclod(a)gmail.com "WARNING: Trying to use ICMP (network ping) will fail unless running as root" This message was raised by a legitimate application trying to reach a network license server. I'm guessing this was a design decision to limit windows DoS malware to use wine as a platform. Since users are told to never ever ever run wine as root, this message is quite confusing. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
