Summary: Wine can't access internet in Ubuntu guest (virtualbox)
           Product: WineHQ Bugzilla
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED

          Priority: P2
         Component: bugzilla-unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

I am running VirtualBox on Vista, created Ubuntu 8.10 guest.
Internet works well in Ubuntu 8.10.
Wine 1.1.16 works ok with games.
Problem arise when I try to run games that require internet.
It seems that Wine in Ubuntu guest can't access the internet.
I have tried the method of changing /etc/hosts without success.

Please advise.

Does this affect Firefox in Wine as well?

I tried Crossfire, failed to load URL for the laucher for the game.
I tried Rappelz, failed to start loading the laucher for the game.
Both games are MMORPG that requires internet to start the game.

I am not sure about this.  I am running 32bit Ubuntu guest, under 64-bit Vista.
 I don't know if I still need to install the 32bit library into Ubuntu. 
Everything works well with internet, except the programs that runs under wine.

page?

This is your friendly reminder  that there has been no bug activity for a year.
Is this still an issue in current (1.2 or newer) wine

Abandoned. Retest in a recent version and reopen if the issue still exists.
