console log when Network Status selected
This is the console log after I started the application and clicked on Help >> Network Status... The connection to the servers shows 0% and all icmp packages are shown as lost.
In the log the repeated winediag:ICMPCreateFile Failed... messages indicate a permission issue.
Looks similar to bug #8332 and bug #22786.
Tested with the current git (wine-1.3.2-157-g2c4b081) on Fedora 13.
I was thinking permissions or capabilities as the issue, but usually the way you can confirm this is by running it as root. That is the case in bug 22786. However, in this case, when I run as root, the problem persists.
As for bug 8332 -- it may be the same, but it's been around since 2007 which is not a good sign.
I'll try an strace and report back.
