Created attachment 45702 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=45702 wine-1.7.0-199-g52fb1cc console output (1st run)
The MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester Agent (MetaTester 5) never sends or receives any data.
It comes as part of MetaTrader 5 but is also available separately to create your own server farm.
It installs itself as a system service on Windows (SYSTEM account) and runs in the background once it has been initially set up from the main application.
Wine seems to have a problem running the services but that is a different problem (bug not yet logged).
Wireshark confirms that no connection attempts are sent or received. Not externally anyway.
The main application window shows statistics for data transfer and under Windows XP this can be a few kB each day when quiet (when stock markets are closed), but Wine never registers a single byte.
Netstat shows that the agents themselves are listening:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:2001 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 216313/wineserver
I can telnet to this port and it remains open for a few seconds before timing out and closing. This does not register as data on the main application (same in XP).
There are listeners on port 6010 and 6011 too but I think they're control ports.
I am attaching the first run log as two agent services start successfully on first run. You can start as many as you like but it makes sense to have one agent per core.
Ran all day on Windows XP and Linux to compare.
In testing I enabled the agents to join the community (global) network. An account is not required for this.
